Here is a preview of what is inside this book:An excerpt from the book:
Dynamic duos in the NBA are not a rarity among some of the best teams in the history of the league. No great NBA player can ever lead a team on his own. Often, it takes another great player by his side to bring the best out of him. In fact, a lot of champions and contenders have had the luxury of having two players with perfect chemistry as they lead their team together.
Since the inception of the NBA, we have seen some of the best teams fielding two great superstars that work well as a tandem. In the 50'ss and early 60's, Bob Cousy and Bill Russell dominated the league as a duo. The 60's Lakers had Elgin Baylor and Jerry West. When Baylor retired, West started teaming up with Gail Goodrich. Around the same time, Oscar Robertson worked exceptionally well with a young Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Flash forward to the 90's, when nobody could ever forget how historic a duo Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were. They would win six titles together. Then, Shaquille O'Neal and Penny Hardaway started to turn some heads with their inside-outside combination. It was not until Shaq teamed up with Kobe Bryant in Los Angeles when he would win three consecutive titles. Later on, Bryant would pair up with Pau Gasol to bring the Lakers back to their former glory. And though the duo would not win a title, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were so dominant of a pair that it did not matter who flanked them.
Come the turn of this new decade of NBA basketball, the league has seen an evolution that trended more towards outside shooting and backcourt players. Because of that, there has also been a rise of brilliant backcourt tandems among some of the best teams in the league. Tandems composed of two guards have exceptionally been useful in today's league considering the increasing pace and reliance on three-pointers.
