Boom, Baby! by Lew Freedman

Bobby Slick Leonard has etched his name forever on the Mount Rushmore of Indiana basketball, and in Boom, Baby he shares memories from his storied career. Leonard takes readers inside the Indiana locker room with legendary head coach Branch McCracken and onto the court when he hit the deciding free throws as the Hurrying Hoosiers topped Phog Allen's Kansas Jayhawks. He recalls the NBA's early years, including being drafted by a Baltimore Bullets team that folded soon after selecting him. He tells of his time as the winningest coach in the ABA's nine-year history, securing three championships in his first five seasons with the Indianapolis Pacers. In his final act, Slick endeared himself to new generations of Hoosier hoops fans as the longtime Pacers radio voice, with his trademark call Boom, Baby for a successful three-point shot.
