(3) Steve Nash is not the only Issue


In the third episode of an exclusive Grantland series chronicling Steve Nash's trying season with the Lakers, he reveals his feelings about the media members and fans who are calling for his retirement, questioning his motives, and accusing him of being greedy.
The issue with Steve Nash is that he is not the only issue.  There is the team, and its future, to consider.  There is the chatter in the media, focusing on whatever it deems right to focus on, even if it misses the big picture and the complex issues inside its frames.  There is voice of the fans.

A heartfelt documentary like this isn't exactly new.  But what is new is its distribution online and the opportunity to watch it and comment on it, unlike years ago when it was all on TV and we couldn't speak to it.  These points, plus its very human drama, are what I really like about it.

Thank you for reading, and let me know what you think!
