Includes Author Dedication; Foreword by Shane Battier; Preliminary Page Quote by Mike Krzyzewski; Prologue; Epilogue; Acknowledgments and About the Authors. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. "Since 1986, Mike Krzyzewski's Duke basketball team has made nine Final Four appearances and won three national championships. Five-Point Play is the story of Duke's latest triumph, as told by the man whose leadership has inspired hundreds of young athletes and people from all walks of life. He shows how one player, a transfer student named Dahntay Jones, helped the team succeed without ever playing a minute of any game. And as he describes the injuries and inconsistencies of the season, he returns again and again to his dynamic trio of Shane Battier, Jason Williams, and Nate James, as well as the development of such players as Carlos Boozer, Chris Duhon, and Mike Dunleavy, all of whom would play crucial roles during March Madness. By the time Duke enters the tournament, the young team is growing more and more confident in itself and in Coach K's vision. Five-Point Play offers a thrilling courtside seat to excellence in the making - and some bruising basketball action. As this story builds to a thrilling conclusion, we realize that we are reading more than a sports story. Five-Point Play is living proof that adversity and triumph often go hand in hand, and that when it comes to leadership - from the hardwood to the boardroom - no one ever does it alone. With the thrilling 2001 basketball season as a backdrip, Coach K takes the reader behind the scenes - into the locker room, into team meetings, into his office and his home, speaking one-on-one with individual players - all the while, teaching, guiding, motivating, and inspiring. The main focus of Five-Point Play is the human story behind the championship season - the players, the coaches, the motivational techniques utilized by Coach K - and the players' reactions and responses. A group of individuals, each talented in his own right, transformed into a true team. No jealousy. No fear. Love. A team brough together by the five points of THE FIST: communication, trust, collective responsibility, caring, and pride. In short, a thrilling season. High points of the basketball season include: The emergence of sophomore Jason Williams as the leading point guard in the nation and senior Shane Battier as the best player in college basketball; The overcoming, at Maryland, of a ten-point deficit in the last minute of regulation and then capturing victory in overtime; The loss of their last home game of the season, which put a damper on the Senior Day tradition when all graduating seniors have their parents in the stands and are honored before and after the game. It was during this game that star center Carlos Boozer's postseason was severely shortened due to a broken bone in his right foot. Coach K's revamping of his dispirited team, which motivated them to go on and win the national championship. Five-Point Play reveals the true teamwork it takes to achieve a triumph of the greatest magnitude." " - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
