EL SEGUNDO, Calif. - Steve Nash responded to criticism
Friday from Los Angeles Lakers fans over a recent
Instagram video showing the injured guard swinging a golf
club.The 40-year-old former NBA MVP has been declared out
for the season with back problems, and he realizes Lakers
fans were confused by his golf video, which has been
deleted.The Canadian star wrote an open letter on
Facebook addressing the criticism Friday night.This may
be hard for people to understand unless youve played NBA
basketball, but there is an incredible difference between
this game and swinging a golf club, hiking, even hitting
a tennis ball or playing basketball at the park, Nash
wrote.Fortunately those other activities arent
debilitating, but playing an NBA game usually puts me out
a couple of weeks. Once youre asked to accelerate and
decelerate with (Stephen) Curry and Kyrie Irving it is a
completely different demand.Nash has played in just 65
regular-season games for the Lakers since signing a
three-year contract that will pay him $9.7 million this
season. The Lakers also gave up four draft picks to
acquire Nash, further hampering their rebuilding
effort.Nash appeared in just three preseason games last
month and wasnt able to begin what would have been his
19th NBA season. He hasnt announced his retirement, but
also has said he presumes this season will be his
last.The two-time MVP wrote in detail about his injury
problems, describing three bulging disks and sciatica
that sometimes prevents him from sitting in cars.Thats
what you deserve for playing over 1,300 NBA games, Nash
wrote. By no means do I tell you this for sympathy
especially since I see these ailments as badges of honour
but maybe I can bring some clarity.

relief. He felt a pop just before crumpling to the ground
after running out a groundball in the first inning of
Saturdays game. It could have been worse. Its going to
take maybe two weeks, said Encarnacion. It depends
how Im going to be and how Im going to be day after day,
feeling better or not.

Thursday theyll learn even more. Despite the cloud of
uncertainty that has followed them around from the moment
general manager Masai Ujiri was brought in to put his
stamp on the franchise, the Raptors have surpassed all
pre-season expectations.Perhaps no one is happier that
the UFC is introducing a 115-pound strawweight division
for women than bantamweight champion (Rowdy) Ronda
Rousey. Rousey (9-0) is the undisputed queen of 135-
pounders, with three successful UFC title defences
already. Eight of her nine wins have come in the first
round, lasting a combined 13 minutes 34 seconds. Next up
for the Olympic judo bronze medallist is Canadian Alexis
Davis (16-5) at UFC 175 on July 5 in Las Vegas. Rousey
has plenty of respect for Davis, a native of Port
Colborne, Ont., who trains out of San Diego and is ranked
No. 2 among UFC bantamweight contenders. But Rousey is
also keenly aware of the need for competition to keep her
division interesting. "Its no fun having just one person
crushing everyone," she told The Canadian Press in a
recent interview. "I really do feel my fights are still
exciting. They can be one-sided, people still enjoy
watching them." The addition of the 115-pound division
means "not all of womens MMA is dependent on how my
division is doing," she added. "There was a while that
(former middleweight champion) Anderson Silva was just
crushing everyone. No one was crying about how that
division was doing because there were so many other
divisions going on that were ultra-competitive at the
time." Rousey believes the 115-pound division is thick
with talent, will be ultra-competitive and that it will
take a while before one champion takes charge. "Maybe by
the time that happens, Ill already be moved on with my
life and going on to the next chapter and then the womens
bantamweight division will be the competitive one again,"
said the 27-year-old champion. "I really feel like the
two (divisions) could really help each other out a lot.
"And its not good to have champions being turned over all
the time either, and not to have anyone to be dominant at
all. So you really just have to find that balance. And I
think that having two divisions in different states is a
way that we can find that balance. " The UFC turnedd to
the Invicta FC womens MMA organization to help populate
the strawweight division with Invicta assigning 11
contracts to the UFC.dddddddddddd. Those fighters, plus
five others, will report to Las Vegas in May to take part
in Season 20 of "The Ultimate Fighter" reality TV show.
The winner will be crowned the inaugural UFC womens
strawweight champion. Rousey has branched off into movie
work recently but says she has no time frame for moving
on from MMA. "Me and my coach talked about this and we
agreed that the day that I dont feel like training
anymore is that is the day Im going to quit," she said.
"If I dont want to come to the gym and train, then I dont
deserve to be, dont belong in the ring fighting any
more." There is no fear of that happening imminently. "I
still park my car and literally jog from the parking lot
into the gym because I cant wait to get in there. As soon
as Im dragging ass into the gym, then Im going to quit,"
she added with a laugh. Last time out, Rousey crumpled
Sara McMann -- an Olympic wrestling silver medallist --
with a nasty knee to the body for a 66-second TKO at UFC
170 in February. Two months earlier at UFC 168, she
stopped Miesha (Cupcake) Tate 58 seconds into the third
round in a rematch of the two rivals. It marked her
eighth straight win by armbar. Rousey took some time off
after the McMann fight, spending a few days in Big Bear,
Calif., and Costa Rica. But she likes to keep busy. "I
dont do that well doing nothing," she said. "After the
(2008) Olympics, I took a year just to do nothing and
bartend and drink and party and it didnt make me happy.
So I really dont revert back to then when I have free
time. I usually end up back in the gym just the same,
except for Im probably am a little bit less laser-focused
and more focused on helping other people and just being
in there." "I guess that just comes with having a job
that you love," she added. "That even when you can take
time off, you dont want to leave it."
