This book on Taoism and Basketball designated on the jump shot, is by far the best at communicated to the western mind that inherent in everything is the natural tendency to act harmoniously with the rest of the universe. John Fitzsimmons Mahony is one introspective and intelligent author that just happens to also coach Basketball, and offers us a very different point of view about shooting training !. ..."
