The Breaks of the Game

David Halberstam

In 1977, just seven years after entering the league as an expansion team, the Portland Trail Blazers conquered the NBA. They were so good during the first 60 games of the following season they were widely touted to become a dynasty. They never did. In “The Breaks of the Game,” David Halberstam tries to discover why, while traveling with the Blazers during their grim 1979-80 season.
