I LIKED IT

THE AUTHOR OF THIS BOOK HAS NO EXPERIENCE COVERING SPORTS. IN HER FIRST ATTEMPT I THINK SHE DOES A VERY GOOD JOB DESCRIBING THE CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON OF THE 2000 LAKERS. THE DETAILED RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE PLAYERS IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THIS BOOK. NOT ONLY KOBE AND SHAQ BUT ALL THE OTHER PLAYERS ARE OF INTEREST IN THIS STORY. FROM ROBERY HORRY TO RICK FOX TO PHIL JACKSON, YOU FIND OUT SOMETHING INTERESTING ABOUT EACH ONE OF THEM. BUT THE MAIN STORY IS THE COMING OF AGE OF KOBE FROM A BALL HOG TO A COMPLETE PLAYMAKER AND PASSER. I RECOMMEND THIS FOR ALL BASKETBALL FANS.

Great Book

Elizabeth Kaye's book on the Laker's is great. I am from California and have been a Laker fan for as long as I can remember. I really enjoyed her book and found it to be a great insight to a very complicated and incredible team. I recommend this to basketball and Laker fan's alike. ENJOY!

I loved this Book!

I thought this was a well written book that was a great read, especially during the playoffs. I enjoyed the insights into the players, and the long NBA season and the championship title. The book reminded me of Bill Bradley's basketball book from many years ago, because it is both intellectual, analytical and an easy reminder of why "I love this game". This book is a great gift for sports fans on Father's Day! Hope you like it too.

slam dunk

I loved Ain't No Tomorrow. I found out things I never knew and not only about the Lakers but players like Allen Iverson and Michael Jordan. It's a great book. There's never been any basketball book like it. Don't miss this one.

a terrific basketball book

it is amazing how well written and exciting this book is to read. it is not the usual sports writer type book, but takes you into the personalities of the players, the way the game is played, the anxieties the individuals, professionals all, feel nonetheless. The lakers have won twice, but each time differently and this book brings it all out. there are no dull moments. i would recommend it to both knowledgeable sport fans, novices to basketball, and all who would like a truly insightful look at this sport, this particular team, its great coach, and what turns out to be great individual players playing together as a great team.
