Steve Nash practiced with the New York Red Bulls on Thursday.

"I recognized him anyway, that kind of personality," Amado Guevara said of Nash. "With hair or without hair, you know that face. I believe playing basketball I'm better, and playing soccer he's better."

"I had a blast," said Nash, who supports Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League, and now the Red Bulls. "It's a dream come true for me. I'm just a converted soccer player."

In March, Nash took batting practice with Randy Winn, his teammate at Santa Clara, and the San Francisco Giants.
