Just make them work on defense, what Nash is suppose to do.

It's better than having these quick guards breathing lightly in the 4th.

On the bright side, Nash is extremely lean & mobile for someone his age...athleticism would help him out somewhat in defending, albeit not as much as he should be doing.

Kind of like having Smush Parker guarding Nash in 06, when Nash was lighting up the Lakers like a Christmas tree. Getting an upgrade like Fisher to make Nash work on defense a bit more helped .

Nash will do the same, when he puts pressure on the quick guards offensively.
