Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Wilt Chamberlain, and Julius Eving. If you had to use these names to one category, you would probably put them in as some of the best basketball players ever. This book gives you their bios, records,and so much more. That's not all, this book als talks about the history and how the game started. Here is a direct quote from the book that really got me into it,"Chamberlain's best season as a scorer was 1961-62. He finished with 4,029 points in 80 games, an average of 50.4 points per game. That's a record that still stands." Here is another quote that is great, "Jordan can shoot with accuracy from midrang to long distance. His head bobbing and his tongue wagging, he beats defenders with either hand at different speeds from any spot on the floor. My favorite part of the book is the biographies where they talk about the famous and not so famous players in the history. I recommend this book to anyone that is into basketball and its history.

I REALLY LIKED THIS BOOK BECAUSE ITS ABOUT BASKETBALL, WHICH IS MY FAVORITE SPORT. I LEARNED THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT, AND ALSO LEARNED FACTS ABOUT SOME OF THE ALL TIME SUPER STARS OF THE GAME.I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO PEOPLE WHO LIKE BASKETBALL AND WANT TO LEARN HOW IT ALL STARTED.
It really couldn't keep my attention. I lost intrest in the book extremely fast; I only kept reading on the false hope that I would find something intresting. To my suprise and disappointment I couldn't find anything intresting. The one bright stop though was the knowedge the book contained. Although boring it was decent on the information scale. But I'd rather just sit back and read a PLAYBOY.
