The Lakers are guaranteeing Steve Nash 27 million over three years, and are giving the Suns their first round draft picks for 2013 and 2015 and their second round draft picks for 2014 and 2015, as well as 3 million to facilitate the trade.
This is good for Nash, since he gets to be closer to his kids. He turned down a 36 million over three years deal with the Raptors to go to LA and possibly finally get his ring.
Ever since the free agency period started this year, I've been saying, "Please, God, not the Lakers. Anyone but the Lakers." I understand the Suns are rebuilding, but this is just another brick in their path to a championship. There's no other team in the NBA I hate more than the Lakers, although San Antonio comes close. This definitely doesn't help.
