Synopsis
More than a Game is the odyssey of Jackson's journey--from New York Knick and world champion, to CBA coach, to six-time Chicago Bulls world champion, to this year's L.A. Lakers world champion--and the lessons in leadership he learned each step of the way. It is the tale of Rosen's journey as well, carrying the torch for the game of basketball through careers as star college player, CBA coach, and preeminent novelist of the game. It is also the story of the system jackson coaches, the powertriangle, as put forth by Lakers assistant coach Tex Winter. The triangle can be understood as a philosophy of basketball and life--one that values role players almost as much as star players, and where fundamentals rule. More Than a Game is also a story of the friendship between Jackson and Rosen, forged in the sacred brotherhood of the hoop., More than a Game covers the years that follow the one featured in the ESPN documentary series "The Last Dance." After leaving the Bulls at the end of the 1997-1998 season--the year featured in the new ESPN documentary series "The Last Dance"--Phil Jackson had one year off and started to write this book--together with his old friend, fellow player and coach, the basketball novelist Charley Rosen. Then Phil took the LA Lakers coaching job, Rosen followed him there, and by the time they finished writing this book it was 2000 and Phil had won yet another NBA championship, the first of five he would win with his new team. In More than a Game , Jackson and Rosen look backward to their origins as players and coaches, forward to the future of the game of basketball, and linger in the moving target of the present--lavishing page after page on the Triangle Offense and all the ways it reveals the essence of the game of basketball they both love so much. This is Jackson in his prime, transitioning from the Bulls to the Lakers, a master of the art of winning, who would go on to claim more NBA championships, eleven, than any other coach in NBA history. As he writes in More than a Game of his newest championship team: "We won because our fundamentals were sound, because Shaq was so dominant and Kobe was so creative, but we also won because we developed a certain confidence in our ability to win.", More Than a Game charts both Phil Jackson and Charley Rosen's pursuit of the purity in the heart of the game of basketball., Sportswriter Charley Rosen and star basketball coach Phil Jackson collaborate on an account of their shared history in the world of basketball. They recount Jackson's journey from New York Knick to seven-time world champion NBA coach (six times with the Chicago Bulls and this year with the LA Lakers) and Rosen's journey to become 'the foremost chronicler of the game' (The Wall Street Journal). Packed with insights into the game and its major players, this, however, is not just a story of basketball but the story of a friendship forged in the sacred brotherhood of the hoop.
