TOKOROZAWA, Saitama Pref. — Fathers and sons have worked together on countless sports teams since games began. And now a new variation of this story begins in Japan.
New Saitama Broncos coach Bob Nash and his son, Bobby, look to help transform the bj-league's Eastern Conference club into a success story this season after five disappointing, non-playoff campaigns.
The elder Nash, one of Hawaii's "Fabulous Five," players in the early 1970s who has spent much of his adult life as part of the program's coaching staff, knows it won't be an easy task. But the father and son share a burning desire to be catalysts of change for the Broncos, whose fans crave a championship.
