Has Steve Nash decided to mail it in?

Yes!

Okay, that's mean. But here's the thing. The Suns window has shut. This isn't going to be a team that's going to make a run at the Lakers or the Spurs in the next two seasons. And if you really cared about winning a championship? You would try to find a different team to ply your trade.

Not to say that he's not going to stay on a 40 win team. A line-up of Nash-JRich-Clark-Frye-Amare is going to be a solid team. However? It's going to fall short. They don't have a back-up point guard who can solve the puzzle and stopgap when Nash wears down. And he will.

But you know what? That's okay. They don't have the expectations. They're just going to be fun. Fun and flirty.

That's right. The 2009 Phoenix Suns are 13 Going on 30!
