CM . . . . Volume IV Number 1 . . . . September 5, 1997 Long Shot: Steve Nash's Journey to the NBA. Jeff Rud. Vancouver, BC: Polestar Books, 1996. 160pp., paperback, $18.95 Can, $16.96 US. ISBN 1-896095-16-X. Subject Headings: Nash, Steve, 1974- Basketball players-Biography. National Basketball Association. Grades 9 and up / Ages 14 and up. Review by Alison Mews. excerpt: One day, when Stephen was about 11, he stayed out in the backyard and juggled his soccer ball for 612 touches, keeping the ball in the air off his feet, knees and head, John [his father] says, still shaking his head in disbelief. He came into the house and he fell down, exhausted. He was always doing things like that. That kind of determination continued and then mutated when Steve eventually turned his full attention to basketball. During his junior high and high school summers, he often played basketball for as many as eight hours a day. And when the other kids went home to eat supper, or out with their friends, Steve hit the playground alone, setting himself up with a regimented workout schedule. One day, he would assign 500 jump shots to be made before he would allow himself to leave court. The next day, it would be 200 free throws. Steve made a schedule and he stuck with it, refusing to go home until his job was complete. It wasn't like work, really. Steve looked at it as more of a challenge. But often that challenge meant going home in the dark, alone. Long Shot is an inspirational biography of a young Canadian athlete who beat the odds and made it to the prestigious NBA league. The odds of an American basketball star getting into the NBA are 7,600 to 1, but for a Canadian the chances are microscopic. As indicated in the subtitle, this book chronicles the journey of Steve Nash towards his NBA draft pick rather than his career since. Jeff Rud is well-positioned to write this biography since, as the sports columnist in Nash's home town of Victoria, he has followed Nash's rise to stardom from his high school days.

We feel with new additions we’re a deeper team with more potential than last year. With our team, our Achilles’ heel is always our defense. We’re continuing to improve technically, and our confidence is getting better defensively. Therefore we should become more successful as the year moves on. Q: Do you ever see the day where more and more players can come from non-traditional basketball environments like Canada and succeed in the NBA, and what is it going to take to develop the sport at a higher level in Canada?

Sport Cape Town Durban Johannesburg Pretoria Quick forecasts SA Weather Service Mapping the best sites in SA cyberspace: goSouthAfrica SouthAfrica.net SPORTING FEATURES An SA-born NBA All-Star Brad Morgan 18 June 2002 Did you know that a Johannesburg-born player was elected as an NBA All-Star in 2002, to play in a match that celebrates the biggest guns in basketball in the United States? You heard right: a South African-born player is one of the best basketballers in the world, and the vast majority of South Africans – make that 99.99% – have no idea who he is. Before we get carried away, it should be said that Dallas Mavericks’ point guard Steve Nash is a Canadian citizen who spent most of his formative years in Victoria, British Columbia, a small, beautiful city and site of the 1994 Commonwealth Games. Nash’s father was a professional footballer, and Nash junior’s first word, spoken at 10 months, was “goal”. Steve obviously inherited good genes, as he proved to be an all-round sportsman early on in life, excelling at ice hockey, lacrosse and, naturally, football. When he finally turned his hand to basketball in the eighth grade, though, he found his true calling. He went on to be named the High School Athlete of the Year in British Columbia after averaging 21.3 points, 11.2 assists and 9.1 rebounds per game, an amazing all-round feat.

Scott Gradin had a clear task in the summer of 1991. Find a point guard. Go anywhere to find one. Gradin was a first-year graduate assistant coach at Santa Clara University. He canvassed the rosters at an all-star showcase of high school talent in Las Vegas that hot summer. He came across the name of a guard from Victoria, British Columbia. Steve Nash, 6-foot-3. So he gave chase. Nash was hungry to be found. He had written to Division I schools across the United States offering his services. The silence was deafening. The knock was always the same: "Sure, he's good, but he's going against Canadian talent."
