Phil Jackson could have been anything—teacher, diplomat, even philosopher-king, perhaps—but he decided to become a basketball coach. And what a basketball coach. How can you resist wanting to learn more about him?
I couldn't. I wasn't really interested in all the basketball talk (who can remember all these basketball words and players?) but I loved seeing how Jackson coached. It was fascinating to see how he managed not only showboat-er Koby Bryant but the odd-bird Dennis Rodman and even Mr. Basketball Michael Jordan. He coached out-of-the-box and from-the-heart and that worked. Fascinating.
