Pages are clean and tight. Illustrated with color photographs. Bing was a legendary player on the Detroit Pistons NBA basketball team. 'After starring at Syracuse University, Bing played 12 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a point guard for the Detroit Pistons (19661975) , Washington Bullets (19751977) and Boston Celtics (197778). During his career, he averaged over 20 points and six assists per game and made seven NBA All-Star Game appearances, winning the game's Most Valuable Player award in 1976. The Pistons celebrated his career accomplishments with the retirement of his #21 jersey. In addition, he was elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and named to the NBA 50th Anniversary All-Time Team and the NBA 75th Anniversary All-Time Team. Bing founded Bing Steel, a processing company that earned him the National Minority Small Business Person of the Year award in 1984. Soon the business grew into the multimillion-dollar Detroit-based conglomerate, the Bing Group, one of the largest steel companies in Michigan. Bing entered Detroit politics as a Democrat in 2008, announcing his intention to run for mayor in the city's non-partisan primary to finish the term of Kwame Kilpatrick, who had resigned amid a corruption scandal. After winning the primary, Bing then defeated Interim Mayor Kenneth Cockrel Jr. And was sworn in as mayor in May 2009. Later that year, Bing was re-elected to a full term. However, he lost most of his power to Detroit's emergency manager Kevyn Orr, had numerous health problems and suffered approval ratings as low as 14%. Bing thus did not seek re-election in 2013 and was succeeded by politician and businessman Mike Duggan.' Bing has been respected for his integrity and commitments to the city of Detroit and its residents.…

Throughout its evolution, the NBA grew in popularity, becoming a global phenomenon by the 1980s. Larry Bird, who played for the Boston Celtics from 1979 to 1992, was central to this growth, helping to elevate the league with his rivalry against Magic Johnson and his exceptional skills. Bird's fierce competitiveness, versatility, and leadership on the court, coupled with his three NBA championships and three consecutive MVP awards, solidified his place as one of the greatest players in the history of the sport.
