The Chosen Game: A Jewish Basketball History,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A few years after its invention by James Naismith, basketball became the primary sport in the crowded streets of the Jewish neighborhood on New Yorks Lower East Side. Participating in the new game was a quick and enjoyable way to become Americanized. Jews not only dominated the sport for the next fiftyplus years but were also instrumental in modernizing the game.Barney Sedran was considered the best player in the country at the City College of New York from 1909 to 1911. In 1927 Abe Saperstein took over management of the Harlem Globetrotters, playing a key role in popularizing and integrating the game. Later he helped found the American Basketball Association and introduced the threepoint shot. More recently, Nancy Lieberman played in a mens pro summer league and became the first woman to coach a mens pro team, and Larry Brown became the only coach to win both NCAA and the NBA championships.While the influence of Jewish players, referees, coaches, and administrators has gradually diminished since the mid1950s, the current basketball scene features numerous Jews in important positions.Through interviews and lively anecdotes from franchise owners, coaches, players, and referees, The Chosen Game explores the contribution of Jews to the evolution of presentday pro basketball.
