Steve Nash from Suns to Lakers for two first-round picks, two second-round picks, cash
Well done to the Suns for making something of this situation. It looked like they weren't going to get anything out of Nash until this went through. Lakers will come to regret Nash's contract ($25 million over three years). At least he'll be better than Sessions.
Suns now look like they're pursuing Michael Beasley. Beasley would fit in reasonably well, and I'm sure Phoenix still believe that Beasley has the potential to be one of the top scorers in the NBA.
On paper the Lakers now have the best starting five in the NBA. Who wouldn't want a team with Bynum and Gasol around the rim, with Nash and Bryant in the backcourt? It's fortunate for the league that Bynum isn't consistent and Kobe is starting to show his age. This is the kind of trade, at least for the coming season, will be regarded as a good one by both teams.
