Whatever happened to this book?

I started watching basketball in 1990 and always looked forward to Mr Hollanders book right before the season started. However, the 1998 handbook seems to be the last one that has ever come out. I've searched and searched and the 98 season appears to be the last one. Does anyone know what happened.

This one sets the bar for all the rest

Hollander and Compton's book is THE BIBLE for all true NBA fans. Casual followers need not apply - this is the one that gets down to the level of detail reserved for us hoops-crazed junkies. Props to the authors for this ongoing series of frankly written, insightful and often hilarious synopses of every team and player in the league. Here's hoping the new version comes out soon, and if the 1999 edition is released, I'll snap that up too!

I think the series has been exceptional, but what's next??

I think the series of books are great. I live for them every year at this time of year. I wish they had gone ahead and done one for last year's truncated season. When will this year's book come out???

This is an aewsome book.

I like this book because it's about basketball and I love basketball. This book teaches you a lot about rules in baketball and it teaches you about what it's like in the real NBA and it tells you a lot about some of the best basketball players in the world. I really haven't read this book I'm just typing this because I wanted to!!!!!!

Best Basketball Guide In The Business

If you're looking for the real scoop on the players. Not the PR-Hyped versions of how good everybody is... Then this is the book for you. This book tells it like it is. If you're a great player they give you your props. If not... heaven help you. (That means you Yinka Dare)
