Moneyball meets The City Game in this compelling look at how the NBA champion Golden State Warriors embraced savvy business practices, next-gen science, and the corporate culture of Silicon Valley to not only produce one of the greatest basketball teams in history but also revolutionize the NBA.
Discover the definitive inside account of how the Warriors, under the leadership of venture capitalist Joe Lacob and Hollywood producer Peter Guber, quickly became one of the most remarkable success stories ever, both in sports and in business. In just five years, they turned a declining franchise with no immediate hope into one of the greatest teams in basketball, a period that included the rise of All-Star point guard Stephen Curry and two NBA championships in the past three years. By operating in "beta" - always innovating, unafraid to embrace change, encouraging risk - the Warriors have become a model organization for American professional sports, instituting the best workplace principles found inside the world's most successful corporations and instilling a top-down organizational ethos that allows their employees to thrive, from the front office to the free-throw line.
With in-depth access and meticulous reporting on and off the court, acclaimed journalist Erik Malinowski recounts a gripping tale of worlds colliding, a team's reinvention, ordinary people being pushed to extraordinary heights, and the Golden State Warriors' unending quest to remain the best.

Laughable Name Pronunciation, Wanted More Analytics

The narrator botches many names of popular players that can become distracting. That is the only flaw I see w/ this audiobook.
I still recommend this for any Warriors fan, old and a new alike.
Great story. Got to relive a lot of awesome moments.

Unfortunately the narrator didn’t bother to learn how to pronounce any of the names.
Stephen Curry is mispronounced as STEVEN Curry!
Kyrie Irving is mispronounced KEAR-EE
Kawhi Leornard is mispronounced COW-EE
He can’t even get Kobe Bryant correct, calls him KO-BAY!
I feel sorry for the author...
This narrator messed up his book. The narrator obviously doesn’t know a thing about the NBA and showed how much of a “professional” he is by not doing any research.
I mean wasn’t someone directing the session?
Hearing STEVEN Curry a 1000 times throughout the book was like nails on a chalkboard.
Do yourself a favor and read the book. Don’t listen to this guy massacre your favorite players’ names!
Fire the narrator.

By far the most maddening is the absolute butchering of well-known NBA player names. Stephen Curry, a huge part of this book, doesn't have his name said correctly once...
If you watch...
