“I’m just trying to hang in there for the guys,” said (Steve) Nash, who has been taking game-day painkilling injections to quell the rib pain since taking a hit in the season opener. “I’ve got to make plays for this team. We’ve all struggled a little bit. I just want to hang in and keep fighting so we can get a little confidence going.

“My legs felt better tonight. I could overcome it. I could manage a little bit better. I can move a little bit better after I got hit and not hold my breath as much and not guard it as much. I definitely had some relief.”
