{"product_id":"glass-backboards-charles-ripp-9780578466798","title":"Glass Backboards: A Coast to Coast Anthology of American Basketball","description":"Basketball is competitive fun, athleticism, staying-in-shape and enhances all faculties of living (sleep, education, interpersonal relationships, dealing with defeat and team socialization). Playing basketball has a strong statistical association with stronger marriages, finances and overall life satisfaction indices. There are issues at all levels of basketball. The biggest hurdle is only 5 players on the court at any given moment from a single team. This is addressed strongly in many chapters; and overcome by coaching ground rules regarding players experiencing a true basketball adventure. As coach, I reminded players and families that I'd rather be a 7th man on a competitive hoop team playing 6- 7 days\/week, working on my game and alternatively not \"hanging\" in a mall or basement. Many 7th men on teams played in college and professional ranks. Seventh man is motivation to improve and obtain playing time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Ripp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0578466791\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780578466798\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sportademics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.93d","brand":"Charles Ripp","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069392843007,"sku":"9780578466798","price":54.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_de297726-53e0-4094-b271-6f25b720d1e6.jpg?v=1685424467","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/glass-backboards-charles-ripp-9780578466798","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
