Book Synopsis 6.4.76 Phoenix Suns Vs. Boston Celtics by : Roger Gordon
Download or read book 6.4.76 Phoenix Suns Vs. Boston Celtics written by Roger Gordon and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-08-26 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a great basketball game? Talented players. Great shots. Amazing passes. Slick moves. Tremendous hustle. A large lead. A fantastic comeback. An overtime period. Another overtime period. Yet another overtime period. A sellout crowd in a celebrated arena. Fans rushing the court. One of those fans attacking an official. A National Basketball Association game between the Phoenix Suns and Boston Celtics 45 years ago had all of those things and more. This is the story of what is widely regarded as “The Greatest Game Ever Played,” Game 5 of the 1976 NBA Finals. In 1996, Classic Sports Network (now ESPN Classic) polled NBA writers, and they voted the contest as the greatest single game in the then 50-year history of the league. Played exactly one month before the nation’s bicentennial celebration, the game began just after 9 p.m. on Friday night, June 4, but due to its length, spilled over into Saturday, June 5. It was played in the historic Boston Garden before a crowd of 15,320. The Celtics won 128-126 in triple overtime. There were so many twists and turns during the game. The Celtics had greats like John Havlicek, Dave Cowens, Jo White, and ex-Sun Charlie Scott. The Suns were led by Gar Heard, Paul Westphal, and Rookie of the Year Alvan Adams. There were many thrilling NBA games prior to June 4, 1976, and there have been many since, but I believe this Phoenix-Boston classic will continue to stand the test of time as “The Greatest Game Ever Played.”

Download or read book Personal Foul written by Tim Donaghy and published by Clerisy Press. This book was released on 2010-06-09 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uncover the true story behind the Netflix documentary Untold: Operation Flagrant Foul. “The book the NBA doesn’t want you to read.” —Deadspin.com Tim Donaghy loved basketball. In many ways, his zest for the game came from his father, who officiated high school and college games for over 30 years. After graduating from Villanova, Donaghy was unsatisfied with his career until he followed his heart and became a basketball referee, first in the CBA and then the NBA, where he officiated for 13 seasons: 772 regular-season games and 20 playoff games. He loved his job, his family, his life. He felt like he had everything. And then, suddenly, he had nothing. He succumbed to a gambling addiction and to intimidation from well-connected criminals—and began using inside information to win bets for them. Following an FBI investigation, Donaghy pled guilty to two federal charges, and on August 15, 2007, he was sentenced to 15 months in prison. He was released on November 4, 2009, after serving his sentence. This is his story, which provides a stunningly candid admission of his mistakes, as well as his insider’s account of the world of professional basketball. With a foreword by Phil Scala, the FBI special agent who worked the Gambino case, Personal Foul reveals how the fast life of professional sports can tempt and trap the unwary and unwise. Donaghy has written an unforgettable page-turner, one of the most controversial sports books ever published. It will confirm your suspicions about the influence of the front offices of major league sports, while examining the corrosive power of money and fame. From the Introduction: I’m guilty. For 13 years I was a referee in the National Basketball Association, living a glamorous life on and off the court, rubbing elbows with superstar players and celebrity A-listers. I suppose many would say that I had it all—a great job, money, a wonderful family—but it was all an illusion. You see, during my last four years in the NBA, I led a secret life that would ultimately cost me everything: my integrity, my reputation, my career, my livelihood, my marriage, my family, and my freedom.

Download or read book Sixty-One written by Chris Paul and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal Bestseller! A powerful and unexpected memoir of family, faith, tragedy, and life's most important lessons. The day after future NBA superstar Chris Paul signed his letter of intent to play college basketball for Wake Forest, he received a world-shattering phone call. His grandfather, Nathaniel "Papa" Jones, a pillar of the Winston-Salem community where he owned and operated the first Black-owned service station in North Carolina, was mugged and ultimately died from a heart attack resulting from the assault. His funeral filled the largest church in the county, which held over one thousand people. He was sixty-one years old. The day after burying his grandfather, Chris was coping the best way he knew how: by playing basketball for his high school team. After pouring in shot after shot, his last attempt was an airball purposely flung out of bounds from the foul line before Chris exited the game. The next day, local news headlines declared that he fell six points shy of the statewide single game high school scoring record. But he accomplished exactly what he set out to do: scoring sixty-one points, one for each year of life lived by his grandfather. In Sixty-One, Chris opens up about life beyond basketball and the role his grandfather played in molding him into the man and father he is today. He’ll speak about the foundation of faith and family he built his life upon, what it means to be a positive light within your community and beyond, and the importance of setting the proper example for future generations. Most importantly, Chris will talk about his home, Winston-Salem, and the close-knit family and village that raised him to become one of the most respected leaders in all of sports.

In Devin Booker: The Inspiring Story of One of Basketball's Rising Shooting Guards, you will learn the incredible story of one of basketball's most exciting young shooting guards, Devin Booker. As the thirteenth overall pick in the 2015 Draft, Devin Booker become a prominent piece of the Suns franchise as they continue rebuilding post the Steve Nash and Mike D'antoni era. It's no surprise the Suns extended a five-year maximum contract for Booker in the summer of 2018. After all, he has been one of their most consistent players the last few years. At the time of this writing, expectations are high for Booker looking ahead. There is still a great deal of potential to actualize at the young age of twenty-two. It'll be exciting to follow Booker's journey as he continues to grow in the years to come. Here is a preview of what is inside this book: Childhood and Early Life High School and College Career Getting Drafted, Rookie Season, Breakout Year, Rise to Stardom The Max Player, Phoenix's New Face of the Franchise Booker's Personal Life Impact on Basketball Legacy and Future An excerpt from the book: In today's NBA, there are two things about a player that will always get scouts, coaches, and general managers raving. No, we are not talking about experience and stats. We are talking about youth and potential. When those two aspects meet in one prospect, it is almost impossible for any scout or coach to pass on a player like that. Time and time again, it has been proven that young players with potential will most likely end up not only as stars, but game-changers. In 1995, the Minnesota Timberwolves did not make a mistake when they drafted an 18-year-old Kevin Garnett out of high school even though he had not played a single college game. The same could be said about Kobe Bryant, who got passed on by 12 teams in 1996. Any of those teams would have drafted him top overall had that draft been done over again. And we all know what happened in 2003 when the 18-year-old phenom LeBron James was taken top overall. There is no need to expound on the career LeBron has carved since the teenager first stepped on an NBA court. Obviously, all of those players were drafted at a very young age. But age was not the only factor as to why those teams took their chances when they drafted players that had not proven themselves in college. What was apparent was that they did not need to dominate in college because they already had enough potential to become stars in the NBA. But young and talented players do not always make a quick and easy transition to the pro leagues. While it only took until their second season in the league for Garnett, Bryant, and James to establish themselves as All-Stars, there have been some high school-to-pro players that did not become stars themselves. Nevertheless, teams will always gamble on a young player with a lot of potential because they know that, if they can hone them the right way, they can eventually pay dividends.
