Breaking the Rules: A Volatile Season with Sport's Most Colorful Team: Charles Barkley's Phoenix Suns

If you really want the inside dope on how the Suns screwed up their championship hopes, read this book. It certainly paints Charles Barkley in a bad light, but then again he is not alone in the failure of the Suns to win the whole thing. So the book does do justice to not just explaining Sir Charles's last season w. Phx., but also the whole Barkley era in Phx. As a big Barkley fan, it gave me pause for thought as to whether he has what it takes to win it all. No doubt he's a Hall of Fame player, a great jokester, but his dedication to winning it all seems lacking. Still he has given the game a whole lot more than most. For that I am grateful and the book does show him warts and all to be one of the true characters of sports. And these days we need guys like him to make sports fun! Highly recommended even if you hate Sir Charles.
