This book is made up of 33 chapters. Each chapter is a different basketball question that needs to be answered.

But all of them are approached in ways that (I hope you think) are smart and fun and nuanced. Also, you should know ahead of time that some of the pieces go a bit sideways sometimes, like the chapter that ends up just being the script of an action movie.
