The most iconic moments and stories of the NBA.

In NBA 75, sportswriter and basketball super fan Dave Zarum tells the story of the NBA, all 75 years -- from its early barnstorming days to the multibillion-dollar sports league it is today.

Readers are treated to all the biggest moments and greatest superstars, with over 75 stories ranging from Jerry West's 33-win streak Lakers, through Jordan's repeat three-peat Bulls, to Steph Curry and the 73-win Warriors and beyond. But this retrospective doesn't shy away from the league's controversies, covering its struggles with racial bigotry, Magic Johnson's HIV diagnosis, Len Bias' tragic draft-night death and the cocaine-fuelled late seventies when the Finals were broadcast on tape delay.

Each story is fully illustrated with iconic photos and accompanied by stat boxes and side stories of some of the Association's more curious and overlooked moments.

    A Story Of A Two Conflicted Powerhouse Woman!
    Format: Kindle
    The writing dynamic duo has once again brought us a story so big in chemistry and family. Two very different woman meet in a bar and decide to have a night they will remember. Although there is intense chemistry, one is leaving for another country and the other is replacing her ex in his powerful position. Two years later, these two woman meet again but it is where they both work and one is best friends with the others step daughter and the other is the boss. A web neither wants to cross but the hearts have other ideas. The supporting cast to these two women are just as good as the lead. But each time they get closer to a maybe, something comes between them which brings more problems. A well worth read. It has laughs, tears and family drama. Another great score for the writing duo.

    The dynamic duo has done it again!
    Format: Kindle
    I think TB & Miranda are my favorite writing duo. I love all their books whether written independently or collaboratively. Although this is an age-gap story of two doctors, Rowan and Simone, it's a mature telling of two very independent yet professional women with a lot at stake in their careers, as well as their personal lives. In addition to the MCs, the secondary characters added extremely juicy conflict and delightful humor and levity. I especially loved Marigold and her free spirited young daughter Poppy. I wasn't sure how the ethical dilemmas would be solved, but these fabulous authors wrote a very thought-provoking and satisfying ending. Well done, you two! I wholeheartedly recommend!!!

    Format: Kindle
    Good read. Usually I eschew romance unless it comes with a mystery or intrigue. T.B. Miranda, thank you for a very enjoyable book.

    Nice romance, but one glaring flaw for me
    Format: Kindle
    This story had a nice romance, and the two main characters were likable with the exception of the one, not only never standing up for herself, but overlooking illegal acts because she’s too weak to stand up to her father. Outside of her relationship with her father and ex-husband her character was enjoyable. The book could have easily been four or five stars had it not been for one glaring flaw for me. The fact that Lance didn’t at least end up in jail for embezzlement makes my blood boil. Real life is far too full of mediocre men failing up! I don’t want to read about it in my romances novels as well. The two main male characters in this story were appalling and neither one of them ever had a single consequences for their actions! In my romance books, I want to see the “bad guys” get what’s coming to them.
