It’s getting heated over in the discussion of Bill Simmons’ The Book Of Basketball over at the Vulture Book Club. Free Darko’s Bethlehem Shoals finds truth in Simmons’ prudishness about cocaine, Deadspin’s Tommy Craggs is a little shaken by the sexism and Motherless Brooklyn author Jonathan Lethem finds Simmons “some kind of manufactured common-Joe surrogate, a Superfan” but still “devoured this book like Cap’n Crunch.” Get thee, and be made smart.
