this was an amazing autobiography i've read so far. Reggie Miller was an amazing baller at his ages. before that he was living in a poor family with a bad neighborhood. he had four siblings n the house including him and he was in the middle.
when Miller was born he had a serious injury on his back which made the doctors say he can't play any sports but after all the thearpy he has been through at age 16 he was on the high school team and was an amazing sharp shooter. After high he got transferred to UCLA and at sophomore year he became the best shooting guard in college before Alford but when UCLA played against Alford's team Reggie miller won them and became the MVP. For three years straight they always go to the championships just cause of his shooting skills.
After college he got drafted to the Indiana Pacers. Back when Reggie was a rokkie he played very awful because he was nervous but later on he became confident enough to destroy them all in the courts. Later on when he went to the playoffs he killed all the teams but when it came to verse Los Angeles Lakers they were getting killed. Reggie was gaurded by magic and west. so he couldn't do anything. then Lakers won the championship and Reggie went home angry because he couldn't do anything. but later on his life he pushed himself to do better and learn his mistakes. couple years later pass by again Pacers vs. Lakers and this time Reggie dominated Lakers and winning them by 13 points 76-63 and Reggie was excited and felt like his was on top of the world.
Overall it was a good book Reggie Miller will be in the hall of fame for his 3 pointers and he was an amazing player. His but was just good overall lots of info in his background.
