"You haven't known the triumphs and defeats, the epic highs and lows of highschool [basketball]."
I wanted to like this book so badly, but the ending.... however I would read another book by the author because I did like his writing style and the insight into native American traditions, culture and their struggles.

This writing style is so difficult to follow. I have read plenty of books that start out with vague descriptions or events. This writing style made it so hard to visualize the events. I hate I spent $12 on this book.
