Steve Nash To The New York Knicks?

We all know how great Steve Nash played under Mike D'Antoni's era in Phoenix. The difficulties that Phoenix is experiencing, which could cause them to not participate to the playoff, might help the Knicks to get the Canadian.

Steve Nash's contract might be terminated in order to save salary cap space and to rebuild the team for the next seasons. The Suns have loaded their roster with big salaries of veteran stars like Nash, O'Neal or Stoudemire and don't get the result expected. The short term plan to win a title this year has been a failure, and Nash might end up looking for a new team.

Newspapers have determined two main options for the MVP. The first, and actually the most probable one, is he'll try to play for the Raptors. He's alwas been considering playing back in his home country, and the raptors have a collective kind of play he will suit perfectly in. Also, I think it will turn this team into a real NBA contender.

The second possibility would be him joining the Knicks. The Knicks are coached by Mike D'Antony and we all know these two ones highly appreciate each other. Also, the Knicks have an ambitious plan for 2010. One of the Knicks weakness has been at the PG position where Duhon has shown unconsistency and Robinson isn't a true playmaker. That could convince Nash to make some salary concession, especially because he remains one of the cheapest star in the NBA (I believe his salary is around 10 millions).

We'll have further information within the next few weeks.
