Critics Review
“Have you ever read a book that made you realize exactly why you love basketball? This is the one. Marcus Thompson has written a classic for hoop heads and history nerds to relish. Dynasties shines in its portrayal of what we all secretly love to hate: greatness.”
–Mirin Fader, The Ringer“Marcus Thompson is one of my literary heroes and he shows why in this book, giving a fresh perspective on some of the best dynasties in NBA history, using the Town voice that has set him apart from his peers for nearly two decades.”
–Logan Murdock, The Ringer“Marcus Thompson is the perfect voice for a book like this. His style is so conversational, you just want to grab a blanket, curl up & get comfortable…Once you get started, you’re hooked.”
–Michael Lee, The Washington Post“The debate about NBA dynasties has been raging for decades now, but Marcus takes a fresh, layered and fun look at this age-old discussion and reminds us that the game’s best players and teams mattered both on and off the court.”
–Sam Amick, The Athletic
