Publisher Notes: Just Ballin'

  • When pro basketball fans wondered about the look of the post-Michael Jordan National Basketball Association, their greatest fear was that it would look like the 1999 New York Knicks. In a league led for the last decade by its transcendent star, the Knicks were the thuggish opposition, and the most recent squad reached new levels of disharmony: the coach was one bad bounce away from being fired; the legendary center was unhappy with his role; the quick new star was the league's most notorious outlaw; and the locker room was divided into factions consisting of the Born Agains, the Aging Warriors, and Generation X.

    Somehow, this unhappy band managed to come together to make loud but beautiful music on the basketball court. Just Ballin' is the behind-the-scenes story of the tensions, the struggles, and the artistic triumphs of this most unloved of underdogs -- played out against a backdrop of the issues of race, image, and marketing that bedevil the new NBA. Insightful, incisive, and deep inside, Just Ballin' is the ultimate look at the future of the game, and the team America loves to hate (and New York came to love).
