With the limited Canadian representation across the Association, we’re always anxious to showcase Canadian contributions in the professional ranks, especially in the NBA. Before we here at Hoop Heads North joined the Bloguin network, we featured a couple of videos this past January\u00a0during our Blogger.com days to give you more of an inside\u00a0look at one of those Canadian contributers, Joel (JO-EL!!)<\/em>\u00a0Anthony.<\/p>\n

This Miami Heat work horse and Canada Basketball Senior Men’s team member<\/a> has been recently featured\u00a0in a video piece on the Raptors NBATV\u00a0program\u00a0‘NBAXL’ by producer extraordinare Jeff Landicho<\/a>:<\/p>\n[nba]teams\/raptors\/2009\/11\/26\/RNXL091109FEATURE216x9flv-1137110[\/nba]\n

Here’s another\u00a0feature from this past summer where Joel goes one-on-one and talks with my homie and Raptors NBATV’s & Raptorspace’s, Akil Augustine<\/a>:<\/p>\n[nba]teams\/raptors\/2009\/08\/17\/ANTHONY090817.raptors[\/nba]\n

It always a pleasure to showcase Canadian talent, especially within the exclusive ranks of the National Basketball Association. Joel, keep making Canada proud. We’re all looking forward to the Turkey 2010 FIBA World Championships<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
