內容簡介

「林來瘋(Linsanity)」旋風讓全球籃球迷陷入瘋狂!
長達兩年的貼身訪問,七場決定性的關鍵比賽,成就林書豪的NBA籃球夢

  兩年前一場大雨,林書豪帶領作者參觀他的哈佛宿舍,林書豪暢談他的NBA夢想、家庭對他的影響,更重要的是他堅定的信仰以及對籃球的熱愛,兩人的訪談隨即分享在Youtube頻道上。

  頂著哈佛學歷光環,終於圓夢踏入籃球最高殿堂的林書豪,這一路走來卻是倍感艱辛,先相繼被各大球團釋出、開始坐冷板凳,但他還是不放棄夢想,持續長時間的練習,而在今年,對抗紐澤西籃網隊的比賽,輝煌的勝利在全美吹起「林來瘋」(Linsanity)的超級炫風!

  本書寫作角度十分特別,以帶領尼克隊贏得勝利的七場重要比賽作為每個章節的開端,除了記錄著這七場留名NBA歷史的輝煌比賽,同時也記錄林書豪的成長與奮鬥故事,堪稱目前最完整的林書豪傳記。

  此外,雖然出生美國,但林書豪父母的家庭教育也是本書著墨的焦點,本書特別訪問《虎媽的戰歌》作者蔡美兒,深入探討林書豪父母融合東西方文化的教養,還有對於宗教的信仰,是如何讓這位球星即使成名後,依舊保持令人嘉許的謙遜態度,及在球場上替隊友製造機會的大公無私精神。

  本書詳細敘述林書豪高中、大學以及剛踏入NBA時期的心路歷程,尤其是他進入紐約尼克隊及在NBA場上一戰成名的內心感觸,此外,更可帶球迷們一窺林書豪的宗教信仰、家庭、求學及在美國生活歷經的文化差異,還特邀美國知名籃球專家預測林書豪未來在NBA的表現,從默默無聞的板凳球員一躍全球炙手可熱的籃球明星,「林來瘋」背後不欲人知的心路故事,即將在這本傳記中一一揭曉。(文 / 妙角)
