A Quick Note from NBA All-Star Steve Nash — 
back to All-Star pictures.

Our favorite point guard is chosen for the NBA All-star game again!  Last year he was the first Canadian to be chosen for the All-star team, and a herd of family members followed Steve to Philadelphia to cheer him on at the All-Star Weekend. This year Steve gets to celebrate being on the No. 1 NBA team, and being able to play again with NBA favorites this coming week. Steve talks about his growing excitement...

"I remember as a kid growing up taping the All-Star games and watching them on TV, and to be out there playing is surreal. What is amazing is that I really thought I would be out there one day and to actually be out there is such a crazy feeling that the dream actually did come true.

Being on the All-star team is a great honor. I think when I look back on my career it will mean a lot more than it does now. Right now, I'm so involved in the team and trying to do better. The Mavericks have worked really hard and come from the bottom and worked our way up pretty high now so we're trying to just continue to get better and give our team a chance to win a championship. I love the fact that all these different NBA players can go play in the all-star game together. My family and friends are very excited about the game, and a lot of them will be here in Atlanta to watch.

I look forward to just really having some fun out there and not have so much pressure and urgency."
