One book I would highly recommend reading is not focused on the greatest player of all time, it’s about the greatest coach of all time. The Last Season: A Team In Search of It’s Soul is a stirring recollection of Phil Jackson’s alleged final season with the Lakers in 2003. The great thing about this book is that it was written by none other than the Zen Master himself, Phil Jackson. The book is pretty much his eyewitness account of what went wrong during the Lakers fall from grace after it’s first 3peat. It also gives a much more detailed account of his journey through basketball and the experiences in his life that shaped his view on coaching players and govern his own principles.

This book is a must own for all Phil Jackson fans, as well as up and coming coaches who’d like to learn a thing or two about handling different players with different personality types. It’s a lesson on basketball and psychology, all wrapped up into an epic story turmoil, triumph and defeat. I must admit, part of the reason I enjoyed this book was because it detailed how selfish Kobe Bryant, not to mentioned his epic feud with Shaquille O’Neal that eventually led to the demise of the early 2000’s Lakers dynasty. Jackson really breaks down what the heck went wrong during that season, as well as the buildup from the other three seasons. Some critics actually felt Jackson broke the “locker room code” or coach’s code of not revealing what really went on behind the doors. Much like the Jordan Rules, Phil includes invaluable stories of the glory days when he coached MJ and the Bulls during the 90’s dynasty.

This book is simply Phil Jackson, enough said. He provides such vivid imagery and a valuable account of the major differences between Michael and Kobe. One thing that is great about this book is that it details Phil’s failure to achieve a championship, something he is not very familiar at, especially losing in the finals for the first time. Phil offers valuable expertise on the trials and troubles of life, relives his journey to becoming the best head coach ever. It’s a great read that is not too long, but not long enough by the time you reach the last page. I couldn’t put it down, and blazed through it in almost a week flat. Jackson doesn’t sugar coat a thing, he just tells it as it is. His trademark typical bluntness is most welcome, especially in a book like this. This book is the perfect read for a basketball fan who is not a big fan of reading. It captivates you from the moment you open it. Seasoned reading veterans will also find this book enjoyable, as long as your aware of some of the basketball history that comes with it. I would rate this a 10/10, this is a top 5 book in the basketball category. You can find this book at Borders, Barnes and Noble, Amazon.com, and other book resources.
