    Well, its not like he spent most of his childhood growing up in British Columbia. He didn't play all his high school basketball there either. He doesn't play on the Canadian National team either meaning he must not be a Canadian citizen, and he never ever claims to be Canadian.

    Really? o well i live in port alberni which is 3 hours from victoria ( the capital of british columbia for you americans). Victoria is where Nash played his ball , i know that, are you sure he was born in south africa because thats news to me. Nash is canadian, no one else can have him, us canadians need some basketball pride, after all it was a canadian man who invented bball.

    I really don't think it is a tough question. While Maglioire is having a good year, Nash takes this one easily.

    what are you talking about?

    your wrong wrong wrong

    he did play all his ball in b.c. my best friend played against him in several tournaments

    he plays for canada's national team every chance he gets

    and is always talking about his "canadian herritage" and always doing things for canadian basketball. hes said countless times he loves playing in toronto because he likes playing on his "home soil"

    100% wrong, Nash was born on Feb. 7th, 1974 in Johannesburg, South Africa, he didn't move to Canada till he was about 12, played every high school game in many places in British Columbia, then went to Santa Clara.

    I'll have to say Nash, followed quite far behind by Magloire...

    For all the Nash haters saying he sucks this year... look at the Mavs... I'll let that sink in

    Definitely Steva Nash, I dont really know any though and Rick Fox from Canada is surprising. No wait, it isn't. I take that back.
