However, while it?s enjoyable to watch, the real reason it works is because it?s a game of culture, art, and all the things that make us human. How to Watch Basketball Like a Genius deconstructs the sport from top to bottom and then puts it back together again, detailing its intricacies through reporting and dozens of interviews with experts. These experts, however, are a diverse group: wine critics weighing in on LeBron?s ability to delegate on the fly, magicians analyzing Chris Paul?s mystifying dribbling techniques, cartographers breaking down Steph Curry?s deadeye three-point shooting. Every chapter treats basketball to a multi-disciplined study that adventures far beyond the lines of the court, examining key elements of the sport from some surprising and revealing angles."--Amazon.com 650 0 $a Basketball. 650 0 $a Basketball. $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012031429.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6F608C8A68C511EE82CCA71150ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
