Phoenix point guard Steve Nash discussed his pending free agency in 2010 with NBC Sports on recently.
"There's a few situations out there that would be attractive, so I feel fortunate that there could be some possibilities for me," Nash said. "One would be for me to stay here in Phoenix. I've had a great 4 1/2 years here. New York, obviously, is our off-season home, so we love the city. It's a basketball mecca. Mike D'Antoni is there so there's a lot of attractive variables. And then Toronto, to go back to Canada to play for the home team, so to speak.
"I feel good that one of those three could really be a really strong possibility. Like I said, Phoenix would be the natural choice, just because I've been here and enjoyed success here and really feel at home here."
He attempted to keep his options open, though.
"Who knows who's going to be interested in two years?" Nash said.

He suffered from flu-like symptoms on Monday and played only eight minutes in a loss to the Warriors. After leaving in the first quarter, O'Neal returned briefly in the first half, only to bang knees with an opposing player.
