Books  The Book of Basketball: The NBA According to the Sports Guy - by Bill Simmons

Bill Simmons, the opinionated and thoroughly entertaining basketball fan known to millions as ESPN's The Sports Guy, has written the definitive book on the NBA's past, present and future. From the age-old question of who actually won the Bill Russell-Wilt Chamberlain rivalry to which team was truly the best ever, Simmons opens - and then closes once and for all - every major pro basketball debate. Then he takes it a step further by completely re-evaluating not only how the NBA Hall of Fame should be selected, but how the institution needs to be redesigned from the ground up - the result is the Pyramid: Simmons' unique five-tiered shrine to the ninety-six greatest players in the history of professional basketball. And finally, he takes fans to the heart of it all, using a conversation with an NBA great to reveal the coveted thing: The Secret of Basketball

Comprehensive, authoritative, controversial, hilarious, and impossible to put down (even for Celtic haters), The Book of Basketball offers every Hardwood fan a courtside seat alongside the game's best, funniest, and wildest chronicler
