There is nothing more underlying here, there have been hundreds of examples of sports as well as private companies coming forward and taking a stance on certain legislation in the past. How can the Suns cause anymore controversy, the law itself had already formed a ground swell of controversy well before the latest Suns game.

haha ya some people will never take the time to educate themselves on the actual facts. The owner nor Nash never said they were against the law but were against the law in it's current form.
I've been a long time Suns fan and will continue to be for many years and don't see too many real fans walking away from the suns over this unless they are just plain racist or not true fans before anyways.. The suns didn't make this out as a big deal hyping it up for a longtime or making announcements at the game. Anyone that knows Nash knows that he has some real big causes that he supports day in and day out as does many other players on many other teams. The los suns jerseys were not just made up for this but were used earlier this year in the "NBA's Noche Latina program" where all teams had jerseys with "Los" added to their jerseys for games.
I'm all for this law and think it could really help a very troubled state of Arizona but not in the current form cause it does more harm than good. I hope that in coming mos they will work to fix the new law so that is not so wrong. I love that this law gives rights to the police to send illegal immigrants back to where they came from but it also takes away rights of legal immigrants and is racist in it's current form.
