Steve Nash 'Not Worried About Trade Talk,' Just Wants to Win

Filed under: Suns, NBA Rumors, Interviews, FanHouse Exclusive, NBA Coaches

There are less cookies these days for Steve Nash to not eat.



It's a tradition on the Phoenix Suns that, whenever they win a road game, players all eat cookies. Well, everyone on the team except Nash.



"He won't even eat a cookie. He's that committed,'' teammate Jared Dudley said about the point guard, whose disciplined diet includes not eating sugar.



Still, Nash, being the ultimate team player, would love to see his teammates gobbling down lots of post-game treats this season. But it's not looking good.



After an embarrassing 138-133 loss Monday at Denver, where no cookies and only frowns were served up in the Suns' locker room, they dropped to 8-9. Consider that this is a team that averaged 55 wins a season in the six years after Nash signed as a free agent in the summer of 2004.



"It's disappointing, obviously, the losses,'' Nash said in an interview with FanHouse about how this season has begun. "We made so much change from a team that was close to the Finals last year. But, considering all the changes, it's not an awful situation. It's just not what we're used to.''
