After receiving an improved offer last week and taking a few more days to deliberate, two-time NBA Most Valuable Player Steve Nash notified the Phoenix Suns over the weekend that he is accepting their two-year extension offer worth $22 million.
The Suns offered Nash, 35, the longest contract extension allowed by league rules for a player his age two weeks ago: $20 million over two years. They then increased the money to $22 million, along with the $13.1 million Nash is owed next season.
$35.1 million for 3 years, is any athlete worth that?

HELL NO!!! But that's JMO...
It will stay that way tho, just like actors making millions.... as long as there are people paying hundreds (sometimes thousands) of dollars for one seat, it will continue..
If people quit paying $10 to go see a movie, that would begin to drop too.... but hey, a guy has to have someplace dark to take his girl doesn't he?

Katie, Walnut ridge is free!
I don't care who you are for mostly uneducated sports players, this is rediculas. There rae thousands of very qualified players out there that would play harder and for a lot less.
