Although I haven’t come even close to the end of this book I can say that I love it so much already. This is just my kind of stuff, John Taylor is a Journalist in Boston at the time of the early Boston Celtics and Los Angles Lakers rivalry. He writes about each game between these hated franchises and describes what is happening with the teams players, coaches, and there respected cities. Some of the players that were most focused in these games were Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain these were the 2 leaders of each team. At the beginning of the book goes right in to playoff games in the late 50s and really describes the atmosphere of the 2 cities. He talks about how each game played was an all out battle with fists thrown and all out brawls, this is how basketball used to be. He also talks about the differences of ball now and how thing really have changed in the league. Over all so far I really love this book and id like to encourage anyone who likes this stuff to read this book, but let me finish it first.
