“I liked the book. It was a fast paced book. It didn't get boring for me. There could be more basketball parts but it was still pretty good. He went through hard times and good times.”

“This book connects to life very well. The book is one of the very best books I have ever read. It has to do with racial discrimination on a high school basketball team. The main character Ray is the only white kid that made the varsity basketball team, but, he is one of the teams best players. This book shows how he gets along with all of the kids of different races and fits along in their lifestyle. I would give this book 5 stars out of 5.”

“This was a really good because of when this one boy named hank was trying out for the basketball team. And hank did not no how he was going to do because he was nervise. So he went to the try outs and he told the coach that he has a good felling about this year because he has been practicing for two years. when try out was over his name did not get called but the coach gave him a choice to be there water boy or run the score board. So now he is the water boy in the story.”

I liked the arguments between Ray, Robert, Walter, Rudy, and Seven. I liked how it wasn't just about basketball, but about every day life situations. My favorite thing about the book was how Ray had to deside if he should leave Walter or not.”

“ A book about one person's love for basketball, and the prejudiced people that make his life hard. This book really shows how people need to be more accepting of others and don't just look at the color of their skin.”
