How to Watch Basketball Like a Genius: What Game Designers, Economists, Ballet Choreographers, and Theoretical Astrophysicists Reveal About the Greatest Game on Earth

Perfect book for the Basketball Junkie.
The writer, Nick Greene, is the kind of guy and writer a coach would be at ease interviewing with before or after a game. This a very well-written book and presents his case more like a coach than a numbers-only guru or a fan who knows less than he thinks he does. Greene has written on a broad range of topics and venues and is smart, thoughtful and analytical. You will enjoy every page, whatever your age. If young, you will learn things you need to know. If old, you will appreciate his perspective. Del Harris, 46 yrs in ABA/NBA

Fantastic book. A must read.
Could not put this book down. Greene’s writing is incredibly engaging and hilarious. I was reading this on a plane and got many looks as I buried my face in my hands from laughing so hard. This book is for everyone. I actually don’t watch basketball or any sports and I still finished it in a couple of sittings. Go buy this book.

A thoroughly enjoyable read
A really enjoyable and witty trip through a wide range of history and different elements of the game. Gave me a whole new appreciation and perspective of the sport.
