It takes a lot for me to give a book an excellent rating but this one deserved it. It was recommended to me by a fellow basketball fan. I had always found Phil Jackson to be an intriguing person. How can you take a bunch of stars and make the chemistry he has done. This book will even make you think about the current craziness going on in the NBA. I admit, I am not keen on the lakers team overall, but enjoyed the story behind it. You don't have to be a lakers fan to enjoy this book. He even throws some facts about former bulls players that will amaze you. He tells his story and sticks with it. This is a great book for sports fans, lakers fans, bulls fans, and overall basketball fans! Highly recommended, can't wait to read the other books.
This is one of the best sports books I have ever read. As an avid NBA fan I wanted a book to give me a honest inside look into the NBA, and Phil Jackson's Last Season was just the book. The man is honest and leaves no nothing out. He is honest about himself else well as others. The book highlights the good and bad side to the NBA and shares with the fans what we would never know. Although I'm not a Laker fan, it was sad to read about their loss in the Finals to the Detroit Pistons. So often we only think about the winner and forget what the loser go through, and also how much they prepare to get to that last game. This is a must read for all NBA fans. I hope he has a book out about the 2007-2008 season.
I like this book because Phil Jackson is very transparent. He explains a lot of concepts and topics in depth. I really enjoyed it and I highlighted a ton of stuff in it. I like his little nuggets of basketball and life knowledge that he weaves into the fabric of the storyline.
My brother say that he want to buy for himself, because he is a big NBA fan. (But he don't like order from internet.) According to my brother this book is very intresting, and required to everything who like this GAME. So I buy to him for christmas, because I think it is a perfect gift for an NBA fan. (from Hungary)
i like to read basically any nba inside stuff. especially about the lakers. this is a must read for all laker fans. Gives an interesting read of how a championship team with 4 future hall of famers struggled all the way through the championship finals and then lost to detriot pistons in the finals. Its like a brain dump of phils mind. I liked that.
