Mook #4 Special New York: The Bible of Basketball Culture in the Big Apple

First of all a big thank you to you if you are among those who have already ordered our Mook #4 special New York in its PREMIUM format ! We knew this issue of REVERSE was expected, but not so much!

Be careful, however, if you have not ordered it yet, the quantities are greatly reduced. As a reminder, our premium edition Mooks are special issues that do not fall within the scope of subscriptions.

A MOOK XXL
TO KNOW ALL ABOUT NYC

With this opus, we wanted to make a summary of everything that New York basketball culture has brought us and still brings us to make it a bible of…

320 PAGES !!!

… packed with stories, interviews, portraits and photos to capture the very essence of what makes New York the mecca of basketball.

Compared to the original edition of this mook, we have therefore added 120 pages of new content to get even deeper into things and better highlight and put into perspective the basketball culture of this unique city.

Due to its volume and its format (rigid cardboard cover, 120 gr paper), the Mook had never come so close to an art book… but that’s not all.

CRAZY STORIES
EXCITING SPEAKERS
OUTSTANDING DESTINIES

New York is all of this and more. Whether they were born in the Big Apple, whether they played there or it made them dream, all of them vibrated to the hectic rhythm of its perpetual activity.

Jacques Monclar, our exceptional editor-in-chief

When you’re a fan of New York, its atmosphere and its teams, it’s for life. Jacques Monclar has been in love with the Big Apple for over four decades and he’s not about to change. Asking him to be our editor-in-chief for this exceptional issue made perfect sense.

Three experts, three different perspectives

They are three, with decidedly different histories, origins and backgrounds, all gathered to talk about New York in our big round table interview.

๐Ÿ”ธ Bobbito Garciaa world authority on New York culture and playground history.

๐Ÿ”ธ Howard Beckformer beat writer du New York Times and major pen of Sports Illustrated.

๐Ÿ”ธ Erwan Abautretan early Knicks fanatic and a hard-hitting First Team voice.

Three unique perspectives to analyze in depth the love story that has always linked the Big Apple and basketball.

Unparalleled life stories

As in every Mook, this issue is an opportunity to reconcile and put into perspective the careers of great basketball actors or actresses with their journey, their history, their personal life. That they shone on the floors like Patrick Ewing, John Starks, Kenny Anderson, Bernard King, Chamique Holdsclaw, the Knicks champions of the 70s, Connie Hawkins and Stephon Marburyor that their talent led the revolution on the asphalt, like the legends of street basketball at the beginning of the last century, Earl Manigault, Pee Wee Kirkland et Rafer Alston, all of them left their mark on their city. Incidentally, the whole basketball world felt their influence.

120 completely new pages

And for this exceptional edition, we have added 120 additional pages to make you discover New York under still other aspects. Throughout these pages, you will be able to learn more about:

๐Ÿ”ธ Spike Lee and his undying love of basketball, New York and his beloved Knicks.

๐Ÿ”ธ The incredible story of Lloyd Danielsarguably one of the greatest talents ever produced by NYC, but whose trajectory was totally derailed under the influence of the streets and drugs.

๐Ÿ”ธ The history of Madison Square Garden“the most famous arena in the world” where all New York likes to vibrate.

๐Ÿ”ธ Lou Carneseccathe legendary St. John’s University coach.

๐Ÿ”ธ The brave and talented pioneers of New York Renaissancewhich helped break down the racial barrier in the United States.

๐Ÿ”ธ The historic rivalry between the Gauchos and Riversidetwo AAU teams that saw the cream of NYC pass before sinking for sordid reasons .

๐Ÿ”ธ Last pro team to bring titles to NYC: the New York Nets led by an extraordinary Julius Erving.
