    Any suggestions guys? Obvioulsy anything basketball related would be good but I'm open to any sports. A book with real insight and some interesting aspects and veiws about the person and sport would be really good.

    Cheers.

    I'm not much of one for reading sports auto/biographies, but the one that came out recently that really did sort of interest me was Herschel Walker's Breaking Free. In it he talks about how he has lived with dissociative identity (multiple personality) disorder.
