Nash on the 60 win team.
--------------------
Parting words

If there's one thing that bothered Steve Nash when he played for the Mavericks, it was the breakup of the 2002-03 team that won 60 games and was two wins from reaching the NBA Finals.

"I thought the team we had two years ago would have been a pretty good team to keep together," said Nash, who signed a free agent contract with the Suns this past summer. "That was not only a successful and tough team, but a group that defended well. That was too bad, but it's done."

Nick Van Exel, Raja Bell, Adrian Griffin, Raef LaFrentz, Walt Williams and Avery Johnson were among the players from that team who were not with the Mavs last season.

-------------
Couldn't agree more.
