"It really damages our civil liberties, I think that it opens the potential for racial profiling [and] racism," Suns guard Steve Nash said.

Oh, my. Can’t we just play and stfu. For gods sake, it’s sports not politics. We go to the games to get away from this BS, for awhile.

Maybe someone will honor the illegal immigrant supporters by sneaking into the game without a ticket.

NO TICKETS NEEDED TO ENTER MAY 5th's GAME!!!!!!
The Phoenix Los Suns play May 5th and I was going to get tickets but the Suns support illegal behavior. Sooooo......Let's all just sneak in as an undocumented attendees. If they stop us we will call them racists until they let us in for free....and free beer and food for us and our families.

NBA is ready to take over 4th place behind the NFL, MLB, and the NHL. They should shorten their season, get control of their thug players, and just STHU and play!

These people are seriously dillusional, maybe they are too close to Hollywood and actually think we care what they think. Just do your job and play the game.
To: ianschwartz
STFU, Nash. You’re from CANADA. What the hell would you know about a Third World nation sitting on your southern border? You Canucks have the US protecting YOUR southern border.
Every time Steve Nash opens his mouth about non-basketball topics, colossial amounts of stupid falls out.

Someone better give the Suns a clue—if 70% of their state’s citizens support this law, they stand to lose a lot of support.
