Summary: THE TELLING OF A SEASON OF GREATNESS
Comment: THIS IS THE STORY OF ONE OF THE MOST DOMINATING TEAMS IN ANY SPORT. THE SIXERS WERE PRACTICALLY UNBEATABLE DURING THEIR INCREDIBLE SEASON OF 66-67. THIS IS A MONTH BY MONTH SUMMARY OF THE HIGHLIGHTS AND EVENTS WHICH BROUGHT THE SIXERS TO THE NBA CHAMPIONSHIP. THE FIRST PART OF THE BOOK LEADS UP TO THE EVENTS WHICH BROUGHT THE TEAM TOGETHER. IT PROVIDES AN IN DEPTH LOOK AT INDIVIDUAL GAMES, ESPECIALLY THE PLAYOFFS. ALSO AN AFTER SEASON SUMMARY OF HOW THE TEAM LOST TO THE CELTICS IN 67-68 AND THE EVENTUAL BREAKUP OF THIS GREAT DYNAMO. ALSO SOME GREAT STATS AND SOME NOSTALGIC PHOTOS PROVIDE US WITH A GOOD BOOK. RECOMMENDED.

Summary: Interesting, but flawed
Comment: A chronicle of the 1967 season where the 76ers finally dethroned the mighty Celtics. Lynch is very passionate about the 76ers (a decided plus), but frequently resorts to tired cliches in his writing and this detracts from the story. He must have used the word 'whines' about eight times in writing about post-game comments. Still, this was an interesting read. As far as his contention that the '67 76ers are the greatest team of all time...the post-season success of the 1960's era Celtics speaks more eloquently than I can.
