The Lakers have remained anxious for Steve Nash's return.

But they will have to wait some more.

In a brief interview with this newspaper after the Lakers' 113-103 loss Sunday to the Orlando Magic, Nash said the non-displaced fracture in his left leg hasn't healed enough for him to play in at least the Lakers' three-game trip this week. They have stops in Houston (Tuesday), New Orleans (Wednesday) and Oklahoma City (Friday). The Lakers then have a home game Sunday against Utah.

Nash said he plans to fly with the team to receive further treatment, but he hardly sounded optimistic about his return.

"Another 10 days to two weeks?" Nash wondered aloud. "That's a total guess. Since I can't run, I'm not going to play this week."

Nash has already missed 15 games, his longest span since 1999. He said he's not currently planned to take another MRI. Nash has participated in various agility and jogging drills in the past week, and shot jumpers during pregame warmups.

"The recovery time is getting better," Nash said. "But it's a small improvement."

my best bet is on ebanks (considering his recent awesomeness), morris (because he looks like igor), dwight howard (because it seems hip to pile criticism on him), jordan hill (because MDA is a huge lincoln fan so it'd explain him not playing)

which player was that, this is the failure of american society, this is why american politics is a joke.


of course the people pulling the strings do not want a critical thinking general public, they want a dumbed down population that is infatuated with useless crap like what the next episode of walking dead (or whatever tv show) or the next reality show (like that baby boo or kim kardashian crap) or whats the next new video game or gadget is.


forget the US, forget just western society, as globalized as we are, the human race is gonna go down just like any other super power civilization before us.


it's in the UN doctrine that with future generations they want to control the minds of the world population and sooner or later convince the future generations that math is arbitrary, man made and subject to change. so ini the future 2+2 will equal 5, for example.

Nash Nearing Return

The Lakers are starting to see some light at the end of the Steve Nash Injury Tunnel, leading Mike D’Antoni to say there’s a chance his point guard returns to the court at some point during the team’s coming four-game road trip.

“I think it’s possible,” said the coach. “I wouldn’t put my reputation on it, but, it’s possible.”

Nash, who suffered a non-displaced fracture in his left leg on Oct. 31 at Portland, won’t play in Sunday’s game against Utah at Staples Center.

The veteran has been ramping up work outs with Lakers strength and conditioning coach Tim DiFrancesco of late, much to DiFrancesco’s liking.

“I’m really excited with the progress that he’s feeling and I’m seeing at this point, in certain lower body based exercises that even a week ago were not possible,” said DiFrancesco. “I finally feel like we’re seeing some beams of light at the end of this tunnel, and that’s exciting. Nobody has been more frustrated or wanted to be back on that court than him.”

After Sunday’s shootaround, Nash could be seen breaking a sweat going through agility and strengthening drills with DiFrancesco. His demeanor is starting to pick up.

Nobody is more eager for the Canadian’s return than D’Antoni, who seemed to be trying not to get himself too excited, at least until his PG is actually on the floor.

Nonetheless, real progress has been made, and Nash’s return is certainly more imminent than it appeared even a week earlier.
