I'm thinking about getting some books about basketball for my birthday. What are the best books?
 
Why? Play books? Autobiography? Fundamentals?
 
they are pretty old but i really enjoyed reading season on the brink about bobby knight and personal fouls about jim valvano
 
The Book of Basketball, by Bill Simmons is just spectacular
 
Dennis Rodman's autobiography "Bad as I wanna be" is one of the most fun reads I've had

That was the one he promoted while wearing a wedding dress and makeup.
 
The Last Shot by Darcy Frey is probably my favorite.
 
Mitch Albom's " Fab Five". Even as an Ohio State fan, they captivated me as a kid and it's a great read.

Yeah that's a good one. So is The Jordan Rules, Wilt Chamberlain's and Barkley's is pretty good as well.

There's also another one "Tall Tales but True", about the beginnings of the NBA, if you want the history of the early NBA this is a cracker.
