Pol's basketball page

Basketball has existed since 1891 and it was created by James Naismith, a P.E teacher in Canada. It started in America and now there are basketball clubs everywhere. It's the most popular sport in the United States.

The most important basketball competition is the NBA (National Basketball Association), which started in 1946. It's considered the best basketball league in the world. Women have compited in another league (WNBA) since 1996. There are many other leagues like ACB in Spain and Lega Basket Serie A in Italy. The most important international competitions are FIBA and Eurobasket.

One of my favorite basketball players is Allen Iverson. He's a NBA player and he has won a lot of trophies and has held a lot of records. For example, he's the 3rd maximum scorer in the history of the NBA and he has won a MVP.
