Advantages: Everything you need to know

Disadvantages: None

Over the past 5 years I've really got into basketball and I bought loads of magz on the internet to do with basketball, but nothing comes up to slam.

Last year I subscribe to slam mag and it was the cheapest magazine to buy I paid like 50 dollars for 2 years worth of magazines (20 issues). And that works out at like £1.60 per magazine. When was the last time you paid that just for a magazine that had everything you need to know for the type of mag you bought?

Interviews with the players is great, they go into great detail about how the player grew up and what they did to get into basketball. There workouts during the on and off season, about making new mates in the NBA. How much harder it is than high school or the NCAA. And if there an older then they talk about the achievements they have achieved in the career. But there aren't only interviews with NBA player there are coaches' interviews, college player interviews, etc.

Every week there is a "Which NBA player are you" Where they compare a player every week to a celebrity. On how similar they are both on and off the court, some of which amuses me.

Not that I'm that bothered about it, but there is a part for the women. And its talks about what's going down in the women's NBA. So there is actually something for everyone.

If you got no posters in your room and you are a young kid that loves basketball, there is a flip side poster, a 2 in 1 poster so you can switch around when you get bored of looking at Lebron's face all the time. Lol

There's also a part for a reader to send in something about them selves if there not getting the recognition they deserve if there are in high school or the NCAA. So they can send in a bit about them selves to see if the scouts read it and maybe they get lucky.

And to top it all off the pictures of each player are great they always get the right player doing the right move when there playing in a game. Not everybody likes too many pics in a mag. But the ratio is 50/50 in this mag. This is why I would recommend anyone to buy this mag and give it a read.

Thanks.

Summary: Must buy if your a die hard b-ball fan
