so-soIt's not the book that I thought it would be. This book would be better if it contained links to the highlights that Mr. Thompson keeps referring to, or if I was a highlight junkie. I was hoping it would be more like an expended long form article/column. Instead it is like a an expanded beat writer's column. Well written, just not for someone that only watches basketball in passing.
so-soI was expecting a little more biography than basketball tactics. It was still interesting to discover how a championship team could be built around a man and his talent.
pickMarcus Thompson II explores Curry‘s rise to the top of the NBA and the ways in which he has changed professional basketball. Thompson moves smoothly from one area of Steph‘s life to another: youth on the court, to his family, to his ethos as a player. Reading has me watching games differently, more closely attuned to the plays on the court, more appreciative of the players and the coaches too. -Chorel
