A vibrant, unconventional, highly opinionated guide to the
triumphs, joys, struggles, and heartbreaks of the modern era of the
game, for every obsessive basketball fan who loves to hate hot
takes The Joy of Basketball celebrates the meteoric rise of
basketball over the last quarter century by ignoring the bland,
traditionalist binary of wins or losses. Instead, the book's focus
is on everything else. Using text, charts, and illustrations that
upend conventional jock wisdom, the book details the most
incredible players in history, draft flops, long-limbed oddballs,
superteams, the international talent wave, brawls, scandals, the
rapid evolution of contemporary gameplay, coaching, fashion, crime,
positional erosion, tragic tales, memes, and the sacred Kardashian
Blessing. Bouncing between witty graphics and keen sociopolitical
observations, The Joy of Basketball is a subversive sports
manifesto camouflaged as a colorful reference book for your coffee
table.
