  • Basketball Bill Simmons Book Report

    876 Words  | 4 Pages

    “The Book of Basketball: The NBA According to the Sports Guy” by Bill Simmons, was a book only the Sports Guy could write. Save a few hundred pages for Simmons to inform the readers on how he became the basketball and Celtics fan he is today (hint: it was his dad choosing between a motorcycle and season tickets to the Celtics), why as a child he called himself Jabaal Abdul-Simmons, footnotes galore, his hatred for Isiah Thomas and Wilt Chamberlain, and many of the greatest “What-if’s” in basketball history. Other than that, Bill Simmons uses this behemoth of a book to indulge on what he has thought to be “The Secret” of basketball and winning championships, and gives his take on how the NBA Hall of Fame should be constructed. In a pyramid style ranking with five levels Bill Simmons has who he thinks should be where, as of 2009, and each level getting smaller and smaller due to the higher standard. It all ends with the 12 best of all time, sitting atop the pyramid like kings with Michael Jordan number one.

There are many facts and statistics that one could site in regard to basketball, but I believe that this one is the most important. The playoffs are when it counts. A team could win every single game in the regular season, but if they slip up even a little in the playoffs, all those regular season wins become obsolete. That is why Michael Jordan being the all-time leading scorer in the playoffs marks him as the best player to ever play the game.
