It's Wertheim for Threeeeeeeee!

I'm going to the fights at the Manhattan Center tomorrow night here in NYC with my buddy and fellow press corps pariah L. Jon Wertheim--whom a lot of you read in any or all of these places: the back page of the mother ship (TENNIS Magazine), Sports Illustrated (for which Jon is a senior writer), the hugely popular SI Mailbag website. Jon, you may remember, wrote a book about the WTA Tour called Venus Envy (HarperCollins). Well, he’s got a new book out, this time about basketball. It’s called Transition Game (Putnam), and you can find out more about if you click here. Here’s the money quote from the press release:

Jon is one of those writers whose output is remarkably even and always of high quality, so you’re apt to like his stuff even if you’re not, say, a basketball or tennis junkie. Can’t wait to read this one.
