A couple of modest basketball rookies highlight today's post. Though I grew up in L.A. I was never a true Lakers' fan or a big basketball fan. That all changed in the early to mid-2000s when I discovered the 7 seconds or less Phoenix Suns and grew to enjoy basketball and two players on that team above all else.
Man, Steve Nash was a pleasure to watch. His court vision was nearly unmatched.
Shawn Marion was criminally underrated and still is. I see him as the forerunner to a guy like Draymond Green.
