Paul Coro The Arizona Republic Mar. 10, 2004 12:00 AM Steve Nash's biggest fans remain in the Valley even with his team success and personal stardom in Dallas. His parents live in the Gainey Ranch home he bought when he played for the Suns in his first two pro seasons (1996-97 and 1997-98). Nash will be a free agent this summer, but taking over his old house and playing for the Suns would not be his first choice. "I loved playing there and I think it's a great team," Nash said Monday. "I'll definitely keep my options open, but my No. 1 goal is to stay with this team. I've put in a lot of time with these guys, and I want to take it further." (筆者按：飄髮哥我支持你，歡迎你繼續留在小牛....XD) Nash, third in the NBA at 8.3 assists per game, will be one of the summer's top unrestricted free agents. Suns point guards Leandro Barbosa and Howard Eisley both have two more contract years, although Eisley could be of interest to Charlotte in the expansion draft. The Suns are expected to sign top European point guard Milos Vujanic. (筆者按：山貓會對Eisley有興趣!?那就拿去吧....XD) Nash, aware of Suns Chairman Jerry Colangelo's pursuit of a new owner, said that would be a factor in his decision. His ties with his last Suns team would all be gone if not for Antonio McDyess' return. Nash was traded in 1998 to Dallas for Pat Garrity, Bubba Wells, Martin Muursepp and a first-round pick that Phoenix used to select Shawn Marion. (筆者按：這支籤的功能還不錯....XD) Harvey visible Suns forward Donnell Harvey may be just 23, but he is a veteran when it comes to practice battles with Amare Stoudemire, 21, and Maciej Lampe, 19. Harvey's hard work has not been seen much outside the practice court lately. He went from a starter in early January to a guy who has played in five games since the start of February. He nearly had become a 12th man until coach Mike D'Antoni turned to him Monday for a second-half boost. Harvey had eight points and seven rebounds in 20 minutes. (筆者按：球隊的第12人....@@) "The most important thing to survive in this league is to stay mentally tough," said Harvey, in his fourth NBA season. "I work hard to show I can help the team and keep improving. It's been tough. The only thing I can do is work hard every day." Harvey said he has benefited from a long-term relationship with Suns assistant Tim Grgurich, whom he met as a 16-year-old invitee to Grgurich's summer camp. -- 希望Harvey明年還能繼續留在太陽，也希望飄髮哥能繼續留在小牛....XD --
