^^teams leave the lane wide open for him cuz they're too busy guarding everyone around the perimeter. with amare, it was a lose-lose situation for the other team. amare posts up, the other players spread the floor. nash has two options - a screen/roll with amare which either a)creates a mismatch for nash to take it to the hole or b)leaves amare open for a savage dunk.. the defense is gonna collapse on Amare, so nash's other option--kick it out to one of the other 3 players--all of them who can hit the long distance shot.
thats why so many teams have a hard time playing the suns' game
