Michael Jordan is the acknowledged greatest basketball player of all-time, but what season was once Michael Jordan the most efficient version of Michael Jordan? Who’s in The Disrespectful Dunk Hall of Fame? What’s allowed and absolutely not allowed in a game of pickup basketball? BASKETBALL (AND OTHER THINGS) presents readers with a set of pivotal and ridiculous questions from basketball history, providing arguments and answers, explained with the wit and wisdom that may be unique to Shea Serrano. Serrano breaks down debates that NBA fans didn’t even know they needed, from the authoritative (Which NBA championship was once a very powerful to the league?) to the fantastical (If you must assign different values to different shots all over basketball history, what would they be and why?), with tangents and footnotes laser-ing out in all different directions, because that’s how talking about basketball works, because that’s how basketball works.

With implausible art from Arturo Torres, this book is a should-have for any person who has ever stayed up late into the night debating basketball’s greatest moments, what-ifs, stories, and legends, or for individuals who are discovering the mythology of basketball for the first time.
