Steve Nash retires

Maybe some think Canadian hoops still is Leo Rautins and everyone else.

Don't forget Bill Wennington.

When I was in high school I had a poster from an exhibition game featuring the Canadian Mens Basketball team, Wennington, Greg Wiltjer, Eli Pasquale and Jay Triano were all on it. This was all before Leo Rautins.

The team finished 4th at the Olympics in 84, really thought they had a chance for a medal given that USSR led boycott.

Basketball hi-light for me and the National team is the victory at the World University Games in Edmonton in 83. Canadians beat a team that had Charles Barkley. Pretty sad that my hi-light involves a medal from an event that is 30 years old and no longer exists!

Me thinks you better check your facts. Even a non-Canuck like me knows that Bill Wennington most certainly was not "before Leo Rautins."

Wow, had thought that Rautins came later in the decade.
