Steve
Nash is one of the true superstars of the NBA. The
Phoenix Suns' all-world point guard is now mentioned in
the same breath as fellow basketball icons Shaquille
O'Neal, Tim Duncan and the Sixers' sensational veteran,
Allen Iverson. A two-time NBA MVP and three-time NBA
all-star, Nash is an unbeatable combination of fire and
finesse who is indisputably the leader of the surging
Phoenix Suns franchise.
Steve
Nash is
a celebration of Nashs rise to the very top of his
profession. Along with former and current coaches and
teammates, Arseneault and Assaff convey the amazing
story of this talented athlete and his ascension to the
highest level of one of the most popular sports on
earth.
Featuring
outstanding photographs, this book covers his early days
as a two-sport star in Victoria, his eye-opening
performance at Santa Clara University, his glorious days
as a Dallas Maverick, leading Canadas team at the Sydney
Olympics, and his extraordinary career in Phoenix.
- Read
how Steve Nash loved bouncing a ball, shooting hoops
and fantasizing about playing with the pros.
- Learn
how, forced to change high schools to pursue his
dreams, he became a regional star in British
Columbia, Canada, but was totally overlooked by all
but one American college recruiter.
It's
a great story.
