5.0 out of 5 stars Informative will increase ones knowledge of the game.
As a personal friend of Steve Alford this will increase one`s knowledge of the game, focusing on guard play. Alford`s basketball wisdom is incredible as was his game. This is a must read for anyone who wants to learn more about basketball, especially becoming a better guard!

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many anectodes, not technical enough
I was expecting a book getting very technical about the guard play, with numerous drills and practice examples. I've found a very short book, full of life anectodes from the 2 authors. It could really be improved with more pictures, diagrams, etc...

5.0 out of 5 stars guard play, May 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Basketball Guard Play (Spalding) (Paperback)
Guard Play is a great book for anyone who wants to become a better basketball player and especially guards. I am reading this book in the summer before my freshman year of college in order to prepare myself for college workouts. If you are willing to follow the workouts suggested by the book and even increase them, this book will do you a great service

1.0 out of 5 stars Thin on basketball, thick on religion, September 23, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Basketball Guard Play (Spalding) (Paperback)
Believe it or not, this book is basically an attempt to convince you that devoting your life to Christ will make you a better basketball player. I don't have a problem with anyone who writes such a book, or anyone who wants to read it. But the book's description ought to be honest about the book's agenda. If you skip the stuff about religion, the book has very little useful information about basketball.
