Should the Jazz go after Steve Nash?

I know a lot of people don't like this idea but I think Nash would make this team super special. I also believe he has a good 5 years left. Plus playing with a young team will be good for him. I also don't think he would demand a trade but really wants to go to a winning situation.

So my proposal would be Devin Harris, future Utah first rounder, GS pick.

This also saves the Suns around 5 million I believe.

Nash
Hayward
Howard
Millsap
Jefferson

Special lineup that in my opinion would be championship contendors for a good 3-5 years. Especially as Kanter, Favors and Burks improve.
 
I agree with this too, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Yep. Devin Harris is an outstanding defender at the PG position. This team doesn't need a Steve Nash right now. We have won 8 out of our last 9 games. What we are doing is working. There is no need to look at trades right now. Come back at the trade deadline.
 
Nash cant play in the same level he did 3 yrs ago, but still he is Nash. It would be good to watch him under jazz uniform. He can help this team a lot for 1-2 years.
 
I am not inclined to trade for a player in the twilight of their career. I like Nash but no thank you.
 
We should merge this thread with the other threads, where all the replies are some variation of "No".
 
I do think that a trade for Nash would improve the Jazz. I was hoping when that draft came around years ago that the Jazz would be able to get him. I was thoroughly disappointed when they did not. There are a few things to consider, though: the most notable being what we'd be giving up in order to acquire him. I don't have any great ideas as to what to give up, but I certainly wouldn't outright reject the idea of making him a Jazzman.

I agree that Nash still has some gas left in the tank and will be a serviceable point guard for a few more seasons. He's a great distributor and he works well with the kind of athleticism that the Jazz have in spades right now. A good veteran ball handler, leader, and distributor could get the Jazz to pass the ball a bit more, which I believe is one area where they could certainly improve.
