" The perspective Phil Jackson brought to a season was interesting. I've spent a lot of seasons watching basketball and rooting against Phil Jackson teams, so it was fun to read his thoughts on a season where he made it to the Finals and lost to my Pistons. I don't think anyone thought Jackson would make it back to the Lakers bench after the way he dogged Kobe in this book. Jackson has won enough games to finally make most people think as highly of Jackson as Jackson has always thought of himself. His healthy self-esteem comes across in the book, but it's still a good read. "
