    From the title alone, Congo's book sounds intriguing. I might check it out.

    :lol: @ Odom.

    Poor Ron.

    Kobe should read a book about math. So he can compute the equivalent % he is shooting... or maybe a book about Pride, so he can realize that he's better of sitting "for a while" and not forever.

    It's always great to see Phil's master plan in action.

    I'm reading Sacred Hoops at the moment and it's very good. There is lot about psychology and philosophy and he connects those two things with basketball. I can't really tell right now why Artest should read that, maybe to understand Phil's thoughts and methods and also to learn what's really important in a team game.

    Yeah, I read it 4 years ago and the book just added a whole other side to Phil's coaching abilities. The guy is really unique. I am glad he spent so much time of his career in Los Angeles.
