148 How I hook you to the sky

This is the story of one of the most beloved, envied, admired, and desired championships on the planet, which for eighty years has delighted spectators in arenas across the ocean and in front of television screens at ungodly hours of the night. The NBA, with its champions as tall as pylons, two baskets, and a ball. Telling us about it, in his unmistakable voice, is one of those who has lived it the most, Guido Bagatta (ICONIC. The NBA turns 80 and is in better shape than ever, Cairo). From Magic Johnson to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, from Larry Bird to Michael Jordan, to the champions of today, so distant they seem to be sitting right here. The magic of a world that is an entire universe, where language is the basketball and the magic is letting things happen. Andrea Valente
