(Part 2) Top products from r/bostonceltics

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I recommend "Drive: The Story of My Life" by Larry Bird. However I would also check out "Then Russell Said to Bird..." because it covers stories from most of the Celtics era including the time period you're interested in. I haven't read that one yet, so I would check out the description before hand.

Book 1:
http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Story-Life-Larry-Bird/dp/0553287583/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394004880&sr=1-1&keywords=larry+bird+biography

Book 2:
http://www.amazon.com/Then-Russell-Said-Bird-Greatest/dp/1600788513/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394004983&sr=1-1&keywords=celtics+books

Which Top of the World book is it? Amazon is showing me this.

Here are links to the other ones (it looks like they are all available online):

• When the Game was Ours
  
• Let Me Tell You a Story
  
• Red and Me
  
• Cousy
  
  They all look good, but Red and Me stood out the most to me. At a rate of one book every month, that would be about 25% every two weeks.
  
  EDIT: Now that I've seen which book Top of the World is, I think I'd vote for that first. :)

I haven't read it, but I've hard really good things from some of my friends on this book about peak performance and "flow"

My father wasn't even from New England or around it - he just grew up watching Larry and loved the celtics.

I've gotten the same way and I still enjoy watching old tapes like these that my dad bought.

He even recorded games onto old VHS tapes that still work today.

Here are some DVDs to help you get started on your Homework:

NBA Dynasty Series: Boston Celtics

Return to the Rafters (This is one of my favorites)

Larry Bird: A Basketball Legend

Look up some youtube videos on Bill Russell, Bird, Pierce, Havlicek. Make sure to study up on Red Auerbach as well.

Sitting behind home plate with Gil and the rest of the ComputerLand gang and trying the old Joe Girard trick of tossing up a handful of business cards when everyone jumped up to cheer a home run. Believe it or not I did actually get a call and a sales prospect from someone who picked up one of my cards! (Who said these crazy sales techniques don’t work?)...

Just here to suggest some more books:

Drive: The Story of My Life by Larry Bird

The Last Banner by Peter May

Unfinished Business: On and Off the Court With the 1990-91 Boston Celtics by Jack McCallum (I haven't read this one but I am a fan of McCallum)

Rebound by K.C. Jones

Also, here is a list of Celtics related books that I found on the team website: http://www.nba.com/celtics/history/publications.html

The NBA already produces an official documentary for every championship team after the season. Here is the 08 Celtics one. I don't think 30 for 30 documentaries are interesting if it's just about one championship season. It must have some kind of an arch or focused on a particular era. A "New Big Three" documentary about that whole era would be more interesting, and the later ramification it had on forming superteams in the NBA. It has a lot more ups and downs than just the one 08 season. KG's injury, Game 7 in the '10 Finals, Ray Allen leaving, Rondo ascending, 4 C's in the all-star game, Lebron's Game 6 in '12, Ray Allen leaving, Rondo's injury, the eventual dismantling of the team in the Nets trade. It's hell of a story arch, more intersting than just that one season.

> I’m gonna go back and look at it and definitely contact somebody to see what’s going on there.
