About the Author

http://www.biggamesmallworld.com/aboutauthor.html

I’ve been a writer at Sports Illustrated. For more than 20 years, covering dozens of sports on every continent—the Tour de France, soccer’s World Cup, all the Grand Slam tennis events, as well as baseball, football, hockey, and the like. Basketball, however, has been my primary beat. It’s the subject of my regular column on si.com, The Hoop Life. And of five of my other books. With my wife, Vanessa, I’m the parent of two young children. To learn about other things I’ve written, click here.

T W E N T Y - T W O: Bhutan

http://www.biggamesmallworld.com/twentytwo.html

As recently as the 1960s, you could enter the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan only on horseback or on foot—yet today the ruler of that still-isolated country is an NBA fan of the first order, and a pretty good three-point shooter to boot. I found a country enraptured of target games of all sorts, from archery, to a homegrown dart game called khuru. To the King’s abiding passion. Whether I found the monarch himself, you’ll have to read the chapter to find out. TWENTY-THREE : WASHINGTON, D.C.

The week I spent in Poland was packed with unlikely characters and even more far-fetched turns of events. I arrived to find a team featuring Richard Dumas, Steve Wojciechowski and, as the starting center, a former Polish kayaking champion—a group you might expect if the casting director for Politically Incorrect. Were vested with the power of a G.M. Mike McCollow, the American friend who was coaching Pekaes Pruszkow. Here’s Mike, surrounded by his zloty-starved charges. Big Game, Small World.

So, this book of yours, what’s the point. I’ve been asked that question, or a variation on it, scores of times. The quick-and-easy answer is it’s an exploration of what basketball can tell us about the world, and what the world can tell us about basketball. And nowhere did basketball shed more light on a patch of the globe than it did on China. Here is Yao Ming, the 7’5 center I saw in Shanghai. He’s likely to be the first player chosen in the 2002 NBA draft. Big Game, Small World. In the U.K.:.

S I X T E E N : The Philippines

http://www.biggamesmallworld.com/sixteen.html

A half dozen years ago, a German friend returned from the Philippines raving about how the game consumes the lives of Manileños. I had to make my own visit there to understand fully what he meant. The scene here depicts a pick-up game raging in the Smokey Mountains of Manila, a garbage dump inhabited by squatters, while a mother checks her son for head lice. I didn’t visit this court myself; photojournalist Lynn Johnson, who contributes to National Geographic. As well as SI. Big Game, Small World.
