Solid read -- and wow, Thurston Moore is a jerk.

Fascinating read -- gets in depth on stories I've heard many times before (Heinsohn getting the players to boycott the 1964 All Star Game unless the owners gave them a pension, for example) and tells many stories about Wilt I've never heard. And expertly illustrates what an amazing man Russell was and his complex relationships with Boston fans. Auerbach and Chamberlain.
