Produktbeschreibung
Ray Allen, the most prolific three-point shooter in history and a two-time NBA champion, has often felt outside the NBA’s culture of lavish celebrity and embittered rivalries. Despite his dynamic success on the court, Ray’s fierce work ethic, determination, and introspective attitude have set him apart from his peers. It is this mentality that has allowed him to achieve what few others can: pure focus amid the noise around him. In From the Outside, Allen recalls his younger days as the son of an Air Force engineer; opens up about his fellow players, coaches, owners, and friends, including George Karl, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Rajon Rondo, and Paul Pierce; and provides an insider’s view to a career in the NBA. This is the portrait of a gifted athlete and a complex man with a highly defined philosophy about the game and how it should be played. According to Allen, success in basketball is as much about what happens off the court as on, and that teamwork, loyalty, devotion, and commitment are the true essence of the game—and life itself.
