PHIL JACKSON is arguably the greatest coach in the history of the
NBA. His reputation was established as head coach of the Chicago
Bulls from 1989-1998; during his tenure, Chicago won six NBA
titles. His next team, the Los Angeles Lakers, won five NBA titles,
from 2000 to 2010. He holds the record for the most championships
in NBA history as a player and a head coach. He also has the
highest winning percentage of any NBA coach (.704). Jackson was a
player on the 1970 and 1973 NBA champion New York Knicks. In 2007
Jackson was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame.
A former editor for Sports Illustrated and People, HUGH DELEHANTY
is the co-author with Phil Jackson of the bestselling memoir,
Sacred Hoops.
"Through candor and comprehensiveness, Jackson writes a convincing
revisionist take, in which he emerges as an excellent coach . . .
highly readable . . . reflects Jackson’s polymathy." —The New York
Times Book Review
"Part sports memoir, part New Age spirit quest, part
pseudo-management tract . . . But the primary thing with Jackson—as
with all the old bards, who were also known for repeating
themselves—is the voice." —Sam Anderson, The New York Times
Magazine
"The legendary Bulls and Lakers leader's new book finally
enlightened me to Jackson's lifelong dedication to the
game." —The Atlantic
"He tells you at different times to see beyond what is seen and to
hear the unheard . . . applicable to groups in any walk of
life." —The Bleacher Report
