Sample Book Insights:

#1 Marvin Barnes, a basketball star at Providence College, was invited to host an orgy by the Midwest’s most notorious and powerful drug trafficker. He was charming, fun-loving, and easygoing, which made him a natural fit for the role.

#2 The ABA had a negative impact on the NBA, as it was a much faster-paced league with less strategy. The league lacked a national television contract, which meant each franchise depended almost entirely on ticket revenue to meet its payroll and expenses.

#3 Marvin Barnes was the total package, a force at both ends of the court who also excelled in the transition game. He was unguardable. He came into the league, took on veterans like Gilmore, McGinnis, and Erving, and never once backed down.

#4 The NBA’s wunderkind, Joe Barry Carroll, created an image of a trend-setting, free-spending man about town. He was constantly surrounded by gorgeous women, and he had VIP status at all the hot nightclubs.
