Comments on: Steve Nash was “very close” to being a Raptor http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/10/17/steve-nash-was-very-close-to-being-a-raptor/ Basketball - NBC Sports Sun, 19 May 2013 06:03:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: paulhargis53 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/10/17/steve-nash-was-very-close-to-being-a-raptor/comment-page-1/#comment-133875 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 14:45:48 +0000 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=202865#comment-133875 Yeah, dls. Just like you laker fans rooted for Shaq to do well, or are saying good riddance to Bynum and his injuries and attitude, right? RIGHT?!

Is hypocrisy a communicable disease amongst laker fans?

To the Lakers. And Sarver did it. That’s why he’s there. Would Yankee fans root for Jeter if he asked to be traded to the Red Sox so he could win a title? Would Patriot fans root for Brady if he asked to be traded to the Giants? Suns fans hate the Lakers passionately. They’ve dominated the division, won a ton of titles and have the best overall team winning percentage of all time. The Suns are 4th all time in winning percentage! 4th! But they have no titles and have only won the division 6 times to the Lakers 32. Think about that. Fourth best team all time, only 6 division titles.

If you don’t understand why Suns fans hate the Lakers and why Suns fans hate Nash for WANTING, ASKING to play for them, you don’t understand what being a loyal fan means.

He gave you his best years and NEVER caused drama, asked for a trade, nada. He’s in the twilight of his career now and he wanted a legitimate chance at a championship, even the Suns management understood and appreciated him enough to do the sign and trade.

If the fans are genuine they’ll be rooting for him to do well!

No, that would be Suns fans. Betrayed by our star and by management in one fell swoop. If Nash goes to Toronto, he remains loved by all in Phoenix. As it is now…what’s the opposite of love?
