Hey, anytime you talk about the Phoenix Suns, the first player that comes to mind is Steve Nash. It's been the preeminent point guard in the NBA for several years. Now, there isn't a likely destination though for a skinny kid from Vancouver. We'll take a closer look now at his amazing journey to the NBA. My first real season of basketball was in the eighth grade, when I was about 13, was when I really played a full season and really found love with the game. So a lot of fun memories getting back to, you know, what would that be? 87, 88, something like that. Growing up in Vancouver, Nash spread himself out by trying his hand at a variety of different sports. But when he reached his teens, he finally found his niche on the basketball court. I spent a lot of my time out here playing and just working out my game on my own and I'd be out here at night when it was darker in the rain sometimes. And sometimes I'd be out here with my brother quite a lot. We'd play a full court 101 on this court and we'd only play for about 10 or 15 minutes because I would end in a fight. Well, it was a very improbable journey for me to make the NBA. You know, I think I came from a city that didn't have any NBA players and, you know, it wasn't a basketball hotbed by American standards. So there was ups and downs and a lot of mountains to climb. But he persevered through it all and his heart worked paid off in 1996. With the 15th pick in the 1996 NBA draft, the Phoenix Suns select Steve Nash from the University of Santa Clara. I'm really, really happy, tremendously excited and I don't know what to say. It's just a dream come true and it's unbelievable. It's beyond words. After two seasons in Phoenix, Nash was traded to Dallas where he became a two-time all-star and led the Mavericks to four playoff appearances. And after returning to the Suns as a free agent in 2004, he took his spot among the all-time greats by winning back-to-back MVP awards. But there's still one challenge left to accomplish. When you have a one winning the championship is maybe all an end all. But I think that once you've won it, it's probably the journey that the path there that was probably meant the most to you. So, you know, it's going to be in the world to me but it'll be in the world to me because the memories of the journey and what we faced and what we overcame to get there.
