Steve Nash: Not Good Enough to Beat the Spurs, Not Good Enough to Be a Husky
One day in the early 90s, then-Husky basketball coach Lynn Nance said to himself, "You know, I'm pretty happy with Prentiss Perkins and Bryant Boston at guard," and declined to offer a scholarship to a young Canadian and UW fan named Steve Nash.
And a damn good thing, too.
Nash, as we all saw Sunday afternoon, will do anything to stay off the court in crunchtime, including spontaneous hemophilia.
Gutless. Just gutless.
The 92-93 Huskies got along just fine without Nash's cowardice; while he was leading Santa Clara to a West Coast Conference championship and a historic NCAA first round upset over Arizona, the Huskies were sitting mighty pretty with their 7-11 Pac-10 record, thank you very much.
The winner of the San Antonio/Phoenix series will probably be the NBA champion. Game 1 (a 111-106 Spurs win) was fantastic. Game 2 is Tuesday at 7:30 pm on TNT.
