Star player, coach, and novelist Charley Rosen is the first writer to make basketball the stuff of the great American novel. In Barney Polan's Game, Rosen takes on the legendary point-shaving scandals of 1950 and '51, when the best of the college basketball players took money from gamblers in return for affecting the outcomes of games.
