Six years after Michael Jordan won his last NBA championship,
American basketball hit rock bottom. The perception of NBA
players reached an all-time low. Team USA lost three times,
disgracing the nation at the 2004 Olympics. With great
historical sweep, bringing in the voices of all-time greats like
Jordan, Bill Russell, Julius Erving and Jerry West, the book will
show how American basketball bottomed out. It will chart the
path of Jerry Colangelo, a great sportsman who set out to change
the stained image of USA Basketball. And with great insight
and fresh detail, it will show how two of the best players in
history – Kobe Bryant and LeBron James – spun their own tails of
redemption in while winning gold medals.
