"[A] slam dunk."- USA Today "The work of a true fan . . . It might just represent the next phase of sports commentary."- The Atlantic "May be one of those literary lollapaloozas that Simmons's fans must buy."- The New York Times "Wildly prolific, ceaselessly witty, harmlessly crass, and generally wise, Simmons has built an everydude empire by triangulating the trashy pop-culture futon talk of Chuck Klosterman and the stats-heavy philosophizing of Malcolm Gladwell."- The Village Voice "This is just plain fun. . . . The true NBA fan will dive into this hefty volume and won't resurface for about a week."- Booklist (starred review) "The book flows much like Mr. Simmons's ESPN columns. . . . Opinion gushes out of him. But he backs it up with equal parts serious research and off-angle observations. . . . He has produced enough provocative arguments to fuel barstool arguments far into the future."- The Wall Street Journal NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, “[A] slam dunk.�- USA Today “The work of a true fan . . .

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (385)
- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePackaging was very inadequate for a heavy ceramic sink. Less than 1/2 inch foam on bottom of the box. Top packaging material was placed haphazardly in box. Box was not strong enough for this type of item. It was box sink is sold in but should not be shipped in. I was a little suspect that item was broken before it was shipped. The one good thing was the quick refund of my money. It was just more of a waste of my time. Seller needs to learn proper packaging if they are going to ship fragile itemsReply from: hazel.online- Feedback replied to by seller hazel.online.- Feedback replied to by seller hazel.online.A very unfair feedback, we have no control of the way UPS handle the packages, Package was sent in the manufactured box very secure and we immediately full refund the buyer. Buyer needs to learn that is not a perfect world and things like this happen all the time.
