In January of 1989, Cameron Stauth became a fly on the office wall of Pistons General Manager Jack McCloskey. He watched day by day, crisis by crisis, as McCloskey, Coach Chuck Daly, and a handful of immensely talented and ambitious basketball players—the Bad Boys of Detroit—won the NBA championship.

You would think this was historical fiction but the fact that it’s all true is what makes this book so amazing.

Great work by Cameron Stauth unearthing these great stories and the narration made me feel like I was right there.

I was kore bummed than Rick Mahorn when it was finished. I was hoping they we’re gonna do the 1990 season as well

A must for any basketball fan

I read every basketball book and most sports books in general so I can't believe I had never read this before. The book itself is fantastic but it's an absolute must listen because of how good the narrator is. Many times people mess up the names in sports books but this narrator clearly is an expert on the subject matter as well, which really enhances the experience. Hurry up and buy this already!

A must listen for any sports fan!

The professional narration brought the Bad Boy’s to life. I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting this era of the NBA.
