According to someone with direct knowledge of Steve Nash’s immediate reaction, the Hall of Famer was in part “heartbroken” by the move from the Brooklyn Nets to dismiss him as head coach.

on Wednesday and games like that should quiet the “why doesn’t coach Nick Nurse play the bench more often” crowd.The way Nurse operates is simple: If he needs to call on a Khem Birch or a Malachi Flynn or a Dalano Banton or a Thad Young for five minutes a night, he expects five hard-playing minutes but that doesn’t necessarily mean the same guys will get in the next game.

That’s the way it should be. Each game is a new game, a new challenge with new matchups and the same rotation doesn’t make sense, especially at the back end of the roster in spots, say, 10 through 12. Believe me, there were some eyebrows raised among NBA lifers when I asked them what might have happened in their day had they decided to take the sixth game of the season off.
