Description:

New to the ABA (American Basketball Association), the Toledo Ice just recently brought semi-professional basketball back to Toledo. Semi-Professional basketball has not taken off like other sports (baseball and hockey) at a national level, and Isaiah Thomas completely ruining the CBA (another semi-professional basketball league) has only made the situation less attractive. The Toledo Ice play their home games at the Toledo SeaGate Center, which is directly across the street from 5/3 Field (Toledo Mud Hens). The Toledo Ice has only been in existence for one season, so it is hard to pass any judgments at this point. Strong professional leagues in Europe, South America, and Asia have really prohibited the flood of talent to basketball that other sports enjoy in their semi-professional franchises. Success of the Toledo Ice solely lies with the marketing of the league on a national level. The NBA needs to do a better job promoting the ABA, and pushing players who go un-drafted into the semi-professional system (instead of leaving the country for more competitive leagues around the globe).
