to the Lakers, to compete for a final shot at an NBA
Championship  Steve Nash's agent, Bill Duffy spoke to Toronto's
Fan590 earlier today, attempting some damage control following
Nash's decision to reject Toronto's offer, deciding to join Kobe
Bryant and Andrew Bynum in L.A instead.  Duffy cited Nash's
desire to stay close to his children who attend school in
Phoenix as the determining factor in his decision to decline the
Raptors and Knicks' offers, and even hinted that Nash considered
retiring if he couldn't stay on the west coast.  One would
wonder, if staying close to Phoenix was in fact the goal, then
why Nash didn't just sign with Phoenix for the two-year offer
they put on the table, or why he even hinted that Toronto, the
furthest NBA city from Phoenix geographically, was even one of
the places he preferred to play.
