4 out of 5 stars Ode to 'Mr.' Craig Ehlo...Pluto's best and Bob Ryan FINALLY did something right!   June 29, 2006
Great synopsis encompassing some of the best
of alltime: Bird, Ehlo, Jones, McHale, Parish,
Johnson, Wilkens et, al. Not just a game between
the Celtics and Cavaliers back in Nineteen Eighty
Seven. Jerry Sichting comes off well in here as
well, his comments. Sichting from Indiana is to-
day Kevin McHale's top Sgt. in Minnesota.



5 out of 5 stars Nothing but net...   June 12, 1997
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

A basketball game in the NBA is 48 minutes long, right? Wrong. There is so much more drama behind the scenes and so much more at stake than another victory in every NBA game that the average fan is never entitled to witness and experience but this book does the best job I've ever seen in taking you there. It doesn't hurt that a classic confrontation between the then-mighty Celtics and the upstart Cavaliers is the matchup taken into focus by this great literary effort of showing what life in the NBA is like (at least during the 1980s). No personal fouls here... just a sure shot for all basketball fans who are also bookworms at heart and are not limited to enjoying the game of basketball on the television or on the court. Like I said, nothing but net..
