Phoenix All Star Nash Not Interested To Play In China:

There are many NBA superstars who have decided or in fact signed to play for the Chinese Basketball Association this coming season owing to the longest lock out in NBA. Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul who are on a promotional tour of China have expressed their desire to play in the Chinese basketball championships this year. But the point guard of the Phoenix team, Steve Nash, has said in an interview in Shanghai that he is not interested in playing in the cash rich league in China and would like to play for the Phoenix in the upcoming season.
Steve Nash said that he would have come and played in the Chinese Basketball Championship if he did not have to take care of his three daughters. He is sorry for his die hard fans in China for letting them down despite the basketball league in China being an awesome one. There are a lot of opportunities for players from all over the world in the Chinese league. But he wants to be with his family and friends during the vacation rather than playing in the Chinese Basketball league. Nash is on a four day charity visit to China.
Nash is not interested in being traded for the upcoming season. He has expressed his willingness to play for his Phoenix side in the 2012 NBA Championship. Steve Nash started his career as a Phoenix Suns player in 1996 and has been playing for the Suns team for more years than he has played for other teams.
Steve Nash is pretty aware of every player interested to be in the ring. There were many instances when he and his friends were close to being in the ring. He says that he is not willing to be part of any other team other than the Phoenix team. He is hopeful of a better showing by the Phoenix boys in the upcoming season. The Phoenix Suns also will not be interested in trading their two time All Star point guard as he has proved to be an asset for the team time and time again. The team is willing to hold on to their long served 37 year old point guard for a longer time as there may be interesting offers that may roll in. Nash wants to finish the remaining year of the contract with the Phoenix Suns before thinking of joining another team at the age of 38.
