Teams keep asking about Nash, Suns keep turning them down

Some NBA teams are like the guy that keeps hitting on the same woman despite being turned down over and over again, they just can’t take a hint.

That’s because, despite the Phoenix Suns front office claiming a zillion times — make that a zillion and one — they won’t trade Steve Nash, teams still keep trying to acquire him.

It looks like, at least according to SLAM’s Devon Alexandre, that you can add two teams we hadn’t previously heard about to the list.

Sorry Orlando and Portland, we’ll tell you something we think you probably learned back in college; no means no.

Then again, maybe if you keep asking and offering up roses (or spare NBA parts), maybe the Suns will breakdown and say yes out of sympathy.
