I don't really know if NY would be the place for him. I mean, Carmelo and Stoudamire - two of the most selfish players in the league whom he would help, would likely think of him as stealing their sunshine. I think Colangelo would be urging him to sign here to bring that lustre back to the franchise to what is was like in the Carter days, where players wanted to come here. Nash could single handedly do that, and despite his selfishness (IMO) in the past for not wanting to play for Canada, I think he does care about the NBA in Toronto, and for that reason I really think he'll sign with the Raptors. Now only if Colangelo could swing a trade for a guy who can create his own shot, the Raps would be in a pretty good situation.
