When the Game Was Ours

Beautifully written book.

I'm a huge basketball fan that didn't grow up in the Magic and Bird era. This was a very interesting read as I wanted to learn more about their greatness. I bought this book along with the Jordan Rules so I could get the chance to learn more about the old school basketball era. This book was written really well as it gave me an understanding at how great and influential both, Magic and Bird, were to the league. Their rivalry was one for the ages. I loved the photos shown in the book. Makes you really appreciate the NBA and it's history.

Es un libro usado, pero salvo algún pequeño defecto en el papel de la cubierta, está perfecto, tal como se indicaba en la descripción. Aunque hubo algún problema en la entrega, finalmente recibí el pedido, y la predisposición del vendedor para resolver los problemas ha sido total.

Excelente libro.Llegó muy rápido.

I came to this book via the HBO documentary; A Courtship of Rivals, which I absolutely loved and as a result turned me into a NBA fan (I am from the UK so football was my 1st love). The book is a wonderful accompaniment to that documentary, but offers so much more insight and detail. A particular delight, was the backstory behind the Converse commercial and how their friendship developed from there. This book is a must for any sport historian fan and it is highly recommended

Premetto di essermi appassionato al pianeta NBA proprio in contemporanea all'arrivo dei due Fenomeni per cui sono assolutamente incapace di essere obiettivo verso qualsiasi cosa li riguardi. Ho trovato comunque il libro molto interessante in quanto copre avvenimenti spesso trascurati, tipoil racconto di quando, ancora sconosciuti, sono stati compagni di squadra in una rappresentativa universitaria che ha tra l'altro giocato incontri in Italia. Ben rappresentata è l'ostilità agonistica reciproca, l'ammirazione che hanno sempre provato uno per l'altro e l'incredibile determinazione che li ha portati ad eccellere e a caratterizzare un'epoca.
