Daly Life “Every Step a Struggle”: Memoirs of a World-Champion Coach

Product Description
The coach of the Detroit Pistons addresses his thirty-five years in coaching, the excitement of everyday life in professional sports, and the people with whom he shares his life
From Library Journal
For readers who want to know such facts as where Detroit Pistons’ coach Daly held his first coaching job. Daly led the Pistons to back-to-back NBA titles the last two years and is one of pro basketball’s most successful coaches. The book is good reading, with interesting anecdotes and information about life on the NBA road and how Daly helped to mold the Pistons into champions. Daly offers his assessment of each Detroit Piston player, but stops short of any sharp criticism. The book contains an interesting segment on the Adrian Dantley-Mark Aguirre trade, believed to be the key move making the Pistons champs. Recommended for public libraries building strong sports collections.
