This is a very interesting book about Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. It was very interesting. And I was surprised that it was such a page turner! Great book if you want to learn about the Cavs.

This is a really cool book. It was interesting to see all the work and behind-the-scenes action it took to get LeBron James signed for Cleveland.

Good read about the Cavs organization, but sloppy and disjointed. How does a book with so many grammatical errors make it to store shelves?
