Nash, Undercover
Steve Nash, my favorite point guard/soccer enthusiast/Canadian/Marxist, recently donned a disguise in an attempt to slip into a pick-up game in Beijing:

“I had on a Chinese opera bandana and I had on some protective goggles,” Nash told the AFP, laughing.
“As soon as I walked on they recognized me. It didn’t really work.”
Really? Could have fooled me. I thought that was Horace Grant.
Nash is in China for the week doing promotional and charity work. After a few three-on-three half-court games with local regulars, Captain Canada crossed over to the nearby soccer pitch to play a little footy.
Indeed, the man who Chuck Klosterman calls “The Karl Marx of the Hardwood,” is truly a man of the people.
Lovin’ the Clippers jersey, by the way.
