Suns Steve Nash is Rocky Balboa in real life

Just an amazing player, Steve Nash every year takes a beating unlike any other player in the NBA, especially in the playoffs. From knees to the groin, being thrown into scorers tables, bloody noses, elbows to the eye leading to one of the most amazing 4th quarters in the history of the sport as Nash playing with one eye and draining 3’s willed the Suns past their nemesis Spurs finally, to this play from last night featuring Nash taking a blow to the nose, and him putting it back in place ON THE FLOOR and continuing to play. We salute Steve Nash.  Steve, you have some great big Nutz so we salute you here at NutzWorld. BTW Grant Hill’s reaction says it all. Steve is the man.

Suns Take A Stand

The Phoenix Suns plan to wear their orange "Los Suns" jerseys tonight in Game 2 of the Western Conference NBA semifinals in part to express opposition to the new Arizona immigration law. We could not agree more.

"It's two-fold," Suns General Manager Steve Kerr said of the gesture. "One, it is Cinco de Mayo. And, two, it is a political statement. We felt the law, however well intended, was not right."

Forward-center Amar'e Stoudemire said it was great to "let the Latin community know we're behind them 100 percent,

Here’s to the Suns and an owner and league not afraid to take a position they feel is right.

Clausen Free Falls all the way out of Round 1

When Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen opted to not attend the NFL Draft in New York, he probably didn't envision himself taking an Aaron Rodgers-like plunge, only worse because Clausen's dip took him out of the first round entirely. He -- and a lot of us -- probably didn't figure Florida's much more criticized and scrutinized quarterback Tim Tebow would get drafted ahead of him either…more

Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints pick CB Patrick Robinson #32 to end the first round

His combination of size, strength and athleticism is best suited as a rolled up corner in two deep schemes. He is a solid perimeter run defender but not always physical versus larger ball carriers.

Should contribute right away on special teams and could grow into a very good NFL player and can possibly do some blitzing in year 1.
