Fully updated and revised to include all the key events of the 1994-95 season, this guide covers every facet of the NBA game. There is also coverage of the history of the NBA, the playoffs, the NBA draft, the All-Star game and the impact of the game around the world.
The NBA is the premier basketball league in the world, featuring the best players from throughout the world. The superstars of the NBA have become the most popular and recognized athletes around. The best players can command fantastic salaries. Major television contracts brought the game to more homes than ever and widened the audience to virtually every country of the world. It's all come a long way since a Massachusetts teacher experimented with an over-inflated ball and a peach basket back in 1891. Fully updated and revised to include all the key events of the 1994-95 season, this guide covers every facet of the NBA game. Focusing on the contemporary basketball scene, the book profiles the classic rivalries and mighty match-ups of the 29 teams of the NBA, including the two new Canadian franchises: the Toronto Raptors and the Vancouver Grizzlies. It describes the gravity-defying exploits of many NBA superstars, players such as Anfernee Hardaway (Orlando Magic), Grant Hill (Detroit Pistons), Alonzo Mourning (Charlotte Hornets), Dikembe Mutombo (Denver Nuggets) and Shaquille O'Neal (Orlando Magic).
There is also coverage of the history of the NBA, the playoffs, the NBA draft, the All-Star game (broadcast live on Channel 4 in the UK) and the impact of the game around the world. The book features star quotes and statistics on all the teams and selected superstars.
