Bird Watching: On Playing and Coaching the Game I Love

I really enjoyed the entire book. It's almost like sitting down with Bird and having a conversation. Love his insights and his knowledge of the game. My favorite all-time athlete, and it seems he was an excellent coach as well. A role model from my teen years to the present. The book is interesting all the way through. There are no dull spots. A pleasure to read, and I've already suggested it to students who play basketball.

That book is so cool! It reads well.... I can nearly hear what Larry's saying as I read.

Great personal stories that reinforce coaching principles and practices.

Loved this book it taught me more about the NBA and the mind of a great but simple basketball player and changed the way I approach the game.

Good behind the scenes insights on Larry Bird. Easy read. Well worth your time and money. Lots of laughs, too.

It's like sitting down and having a few beers with the Legend himself! Very down to earth fellow who has his head in place! Larry Legend!

Really enjoyed hearing a legends take on the game. Larry Bird a great player and a great coach. There is quite a bit to take away from this book.

Great book very well written. Bird is very honest on his thoughts on the NBA. I would suggest this book to any NBA fanatic.

Larry Bird was the inspiration for a love of basketball that has lasted for over 25 years of my life so far and this book isn't an easy read. There is a lack of fluidity to the writing but the main issue for me is the subject matter. It wasn't easy to read because part of me wanted to ignore the pain that Bird went through to continue playing for as long as he did and also the way that his time with the Celtics was blighted by the politics of the front office. Uncomfortable, yes, but it is an important archive of what goes on in the mind of one of basketball's greatest.
