Beschreibung
#1 New York Times Bestseller Selected by Barack Obama as one of his favorite books of the yearWhat year was Michael Jordan the absolute, undisputed Devil-mode version of Michael Jordan. Who belongs in the elite, deeply disrespectful Dunk Hall of Fame. What are the exact, unwritten laws governing what is allowed and absolutely forbidden in a pickup basketball game. Basketball (and Other Things) is the definitive collection of pivotal, ridiculous, and brilliant fan disputes from hoops history. Perfect for fans of sports trivia, pop culture essays, and deep-dive NBA analysis, this book breaks down the standard talk-show debates you've heard a million times into the hyperspecific questions you didn't even know your brain needed answered. Award-winning writer Shea Serrano covers everything from the analytical (How many years was Kobe Bryant actually the best player in the league. ) to the wonderfully chaotic (Which NBA player would you want as an ally if The Purge happened in real life. ). With a foreword by NBA legend Reggie Miller and packed with stunning, comic-book-style illustrations by Arturo Torres, this classic 33-chapter masterpiece treats the mythology of modern basketball with equal parts brilliant insight and hilarious irreverence. It's the ultimate sports gift book for anyone who has ever stayed up until 3:00 AM arguing about the NBA's greatest what-ifs, or for anyone ready to fall in love with the beautiful absurdity of basketball fandom for the very first time.
