Frozen Hoops: History of Professional Basketball in Canada

This is an extensive site that I have created dealing with the history of Professional Basketball in Canada including teams from the BAA, NBL, WBA, WBL, CBA, ABA and NBA to name a few leagues along with players like Norm Baker, Bobby Croft, Lars Hansen. (I have written for the NBA and journalist since 1976)

The most extensive history of pro basketball and it's impact in Canada found anywhere on the web. Would be a great motivator for young Canadian players.

It also has a section where I am compiling a list for the Top 100 Canadian basketball players (amateur or pro) of all time that has become a great interest to the readers in the short time the site has been up. Two days. This list is extensive and has input from readers from across Canada where many a CIS player - past, present and future - needs recognition.

Also includes WNBA, Harlem Globetrotters, and Canadian basketball trivia etc. cetera. Even has more info on Canadians in the NBA (which I also wrote for nba.com) then the NBA does!

Some of the info and updates included on site are:

1: Current Canadian players in the NBA

2: Former Canadian players in the NBA

3: The Top 100 Canadian players of all time (in progress at No. 52 right now)

4: Former and current Canadian players in the WNBA

5: Former and current Canadian players in semi-pro leagues and Europe

6: History on the Edmonton Grads, Toronto Huskies, Raptors, and Vancouver Grizzlies

7: Canadian basketball trivia

8: Canadian prospect players

9: History of Dr. James Naismith

10: History on coaches like Jack Donohue

11: The Ontario Professional Basketball Association

12: Vancouver in the ABA

In two days up have more than 400 different hits from people by just word of mouth and nothing but compliments on the research displayed

Plus much more

Need help from fans in regards to past our current Canadians who have played in the semi-pro leagues?

im a 25 year old native canadian trying out for a pro team in the aba. my name is robert martin and im from the ghetto of north end of winnipeg, i have played against current team canada players and pro's from the cba, wbl and nba, i even make the trip down to nyc and attend the EBC tournament and check that out. i played in the 97 canada games, 96 canadian junoir nationals, but havent gotten the opportunity to showcase my whole talents as a whole on a national or international level. now i have the opportunity with the ABA's native america and with that, i will try-out for coach JT's canadian senoir mens national team once given that chance. i look to be the first native canadian on the senoir mens national basketball team. i pray everynight that canada will qualify for the 2008 olympic games. i play basketball here day and night, working on drills and watching tapes of players like dr. j, the iceman george gerwin, the worm dennis rodman, and mj. lastest i stay out is about 3am on the street courts, 10:30pm at the local YMCA, all times CST. i picked up a basketball at the age of 14 and never dropped it since. im the only native canadian in my city who is fully committed to the game, day and night. why is that you never notice one single native canadian or american in the NBA making a salary? my people say its all politics and that they see only whats on the outside rather then whats on the inside. i got the heart and tools to play, but lack the stage to showcase my talents to the native canadian or native american communities. upon making a pro team or the national team can you regard me as one of the top 100 or put me on the inspiration players page.
