FROM THE PUBLISHER
Larry Bird, the NBA's Most Valuable Player for three straight seasons, shares his insights into America's favorite game. BIRD ON BASKETBALL puts fans right on the court with one of the greatest players of all time. Filled with more than 100 dramatic action photos, charts, and diagrams, this how-to guide covers all the building blocks of basketball - shooting, passing, dribbling, defense, and rebounding - from a champion's point of view. But, as his career statistics show, Larry Bird's brand of basketball goes much deeper. He is a master of the game's subtle elements. BIRD ON BASKETBALL emphasizes the little things that add up to big victories: moving without the ball, rebound positioning, court sense, being a team player, training. Bird coaches you to pound the boards, charge fearlessly to the hoop, and play a bruising brand of defense. BIRD ON BASKETBALL is an all-out effort to give young players an inside look at how basketball should be played.
