3.0 out of 5 stars Short but helpful guide, 6 April 2000
By Lily - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Basketball Made Simple: A Spectator's Guide (Garden Lover's Guidebook) (Paperback)
I bought this book as a gift but learned alot from it myself. I found it quite helpful.

Some things in the book were hard to find, such as the explanation of different zone defenses for NCAA. Once found, I did learn something! The explanations were short and to-the-point.

There were some pictures and diagrams, but mostly the book is text. I was hoping for more pictures.

The book covers both NBA and NCAA basketball.

Overall, not a bad place to get started with basketball!
