The Book of Basketball

Bill Simmons

Bill Simmons’ “The Book of Basketball” isn’t your every-day sports book of facts and comparisons. It is the product of one man’s great love of basketball and a pinch of imagination. He comically conveys his 33 somewhat strange wishes, one being blowing up the Basketball Hall of Fame and building a new, pyramidlike in its stead, consisting of five floors for the 96 worthiest NBA players.
