Well it’s about damn time. Today Steve Nash was named general manager of the senior men’s national team for Canada Basketball during a news conference Tuesday in Toronto.
“Obviously I love the program,” Nash told ESPN.com. “It was a huge part of my development as a player. Going to the Olympics (in 2000) was the best experience of my career. So if I can help other Canadians experience that, it would be pretty amazing. I want to try to lend my hand to help develop our system and change the image and reputation of this country internationally and be a resource for as many of our good, young kids as possible.”
Only the paring of french fries, gravy and cheese curds seems like a better fit than Steve Nash and the future development of basketball in Canda.
