Author and former SI writer Jeff Pearlman is here to talk about his brand new book, Three Ring Circus: Kobe, Shaq, Phil, and the Crazy Years of the Lakers Dynasty. The book is incredible, and Jeff was kinda enough to go into detail on everything from the best stories surrounding those Lakers teams, to the writing process, to the strange and tragic death of Kobe Bryant in the days after he finished the manuscript. A great convo with one of my favorites; enjoy!
