Product Information
Today's National Basketball Association commands millions of spectators worldwide, and its many franchises are worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

He tells a very compelling story of the role of a small group of owners who stayed with the sport and the league when it was always on the verge of financial collapse and then began to cash in when the league caught on in the 1960s, a long-shot gamble that paid off big."--James Quirk, coauthor of Hard Ball: The Abuse of Power in Pro Team Sports, ''A fascinating story about the evolution of the NBA.

James Quirk, co-author of Hard Ball: The Abuse of Power in Pro Team Sports, "If you're a fan of the NBA--and I mean a real fan of the league and its history-- Surdam's book won't disappoint. Surdam tells well the story of the founders creating a league in which uncertainty and excitement were part of every contest."-- EH.Net, "A fascinating story about the evolution of the NBA.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.
