Steve Nash The Making Of An MVP By Jeff Rud

I recommend Steve Nash The Making Of An MVP to anyone who plays sports. This is because the hole book is about how Steve Nash spent his whole life practicing how to get better at basketball. Throughout the book Steve would practice, and get more talented than everyone else starting in grade 10 at Mt. Doug. Every time he moved up a level in the game he would practice, tell he was better than anyone else? After Mt. Doug he went to SMUS for grade 11 and 12. Steve was not allowed to play for SMUS for his grade 11 year. In his grade 12 year he was at the top of his game, taking his team to a 50-4 and winning the provincial AAA Title. He was at the top of his game for his grade 12 year because all he did was practice in his grade 11 year. By the end of his Grade 12 year, Steve was getting worried because no universities in the states had come to watch him for a scholarship. Steve’s B-ball coach Ian Hyde-lay was helping Steve find a university for Steve, by sending out E-mails to all NCAA universities. One university called Santa Clara. They came out to Victoria to watch Steve play. After that they offered Steve a full scholarship. Steve took the scholarship. Once Steve got to the school he had a lot of work to do to get as good as he needed to be. Steve first year was hard for him, but once he got to his 2nd 3rd and 4th year Steve was a superstar. After his 4th year Steve was going to the NBA draft, Steve’s dream. Steve was picked 15th overall with a contract of 763,000$ US with the Phoenix Suns. Steve once again had a lot of work to do to get to the top of the NBA. His first year he did not play much, but still worked on a lot of basic techniques and had to work on his determination to get to the top. This is why I recomend Steve Nash The Making Of An MVP to anyone who plays sports.
