Night Hoops

Night Hoops is one of the greatest books I have ever read by far. I've only read 20 pages and the book has already drawn me into the story. In the beginning of the story I can already tell that the story is going to be about basketball and is really emotional. The beginning sounds like a dramatic movie because in those types of movies it starts out the with a part in the movie that is emotional and then goes to the beginning of the character. Like in the Blinde Side when Michael was in the office room with the lady. It was just like that except one kid was with another kid that he knows and they start playing basketball together. It is at night. The main character starts talking about how good they both were and how an even match it was and that he was playing much better than he does in the day. It seems that the main character is more happy than the kid that he is playing with. They kept playing until a pause and it went to the beginning. Then it was talking the main character who was playing with his friends and this kid named Trent Dawson was playing without heart and he was being strong to the basket. It was hard to stop him and they almost gave up. They all thought that Trent was good and when he left slowly one by one they left Abbott. And he went home. So the book starts with basketball and it seems that the main character has an enemy or some one he just doesn't like. The book goes right into what is happening with main character. And mean while in Abbott's house his mom and dad were arguing on a basketball court for Abbott and his brother to play on. But his mom has her garden in the spot where he wants to build it. Eventually he does and Abbott's mom is really angry at his dad and seems like she might not be able to forgive him. So starting here there is a lot of drama already and there is a lot of basketball too. This book is fun to read cause it goes right into the story and I can tell that this story is going to be long and interesting.
