Book Review: Oral history at its finest...
Summary: 5 Stars
In a few words, -Loose Balls- offers more than just the story of the ABA and men and women who made it work. It is also outlines the transformation of the professional sports economy along with describing the hedonism and excess of the 1970s. Highly recommended for the basketball fan.
