The big excitement in the post-All-Star NBA was the gallant return of PHX point guard Steve Nash, who came back last night to help the Suns beat up on the Clippers here in LA.
Despite taking a scary charge from Elton Brand, Steve was safe and sound and playing decently, although by everyone’s admission, he was also a little rusty.
That all works when you’re playing the Clippers, who were without Chris Kaman, Cuttino Mobley, and also kinda stink. Steve Nash weighs in.
“I’m going to fight through some soreness and stiffness just because the shoulder is protecting itself, but I think I’ll be OK,” Nash said.
“It was the urgency of where we were,” [the Suns' Coach Mike] said. “OK, we stumbled; let’s get back. We brought Steve back and Kurt so he can guard Elton Brand so we don’t have to run around as much.”
While the most interesting thing to note here is probably that Steve’s shoulder is self-aware enough to protect itself, we know what you’re wondering – what’s with the title of this post?
We can’t tell you – that’s the thing. The reason we can’t tell you is brave and kind in and of itself, so you should be thanking us for being so protective and generous.
This is blog is heady – remain calm. Or “clam”, as that sentence said before we fixed the typo. The main thing to remember is that every day between now and the end of the regular season, this blog is gonna get stupider and the Suns are closer than ever to locking themselves into the two seed in the West.
(BTW at four games under .500, the Clips should officially tank – they can still get that coveted 8th pick in the draft if they’re shifty enough.)

Why are you even writing about this? Bill Simmons has already identified THE story for the second half of the NBA, he is infallible
I’ll be addressing that!
Edit:
“Or “clamâ€, as that sentence said before we fixed the typo…”
[Or "sentece", as that sentence said before we fixed the typo].
or “should” as it says in the 6th paragraph when it should say shoulder and you havn’t fixed the typo…
You know who else is “shifty”? God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Happy Ash Wednesday, whatever the Hell that means. People are walking around work today with fucking ash on their forehead. I’m like, “Hey, you have something on your head.” They are like, “I know, I went to Church.” I say back to them, “No, it’s a blinking sign that says ‘Dumbass’.”
Wow I’m really getting better – only two typos!
My biology professor doesn’t “appreciate” my “complete neglect for his lecture.”
How did he even know I wasn’t paying attention?
I am from Russia, I live in NY, and love Knicks (deep inside) and Nets and almost Cavaliers,
‘cos I’ve been to Ohio once
But Stevie is the best.
(love your blog, because you never mention Dallas)
