Phoenix point guard Steve Nash said on Friday that he's over the trade that sent friends Raja Bell and Boris Diaw to Charlotte earlier this season.

"I'm over that. I love having Jason and Jared on our team. I'll always be friends with Raja and Boris," Nash said. "Life goes on. It was tough on me because they were close friends. It was tough and maybe blown out of proportion because I found out boarding the bus on the way to a game. It's a business, and they like where they are, and we like our new additions."
