I've looked through his player ranking and the only one that jumps out now is Allen Iverson. He's WAY off on that one. Good forward by Gladwell. I'm enjoying the book.

I read the first chapter last night (The Secret). I like that concept and like how he spells out out pretty simply (i.e. basketball and hockey are different in terms of chemistry being so high up in importance).
