1.0 out of 5 stars THIS BOOK IS NOT GOOD, August 17, 2000

By A Customer

This book is not what I expected. This book is truly Unauthorized, Phil Jackson would not accept this book. It is a book of random quotes that are pretty useless. I would suggest his Hoops book instead. That is a great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars There is a "Z" in team, Z for Zen., July 12, 2000

By	Ally Ash (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews

Whether you are a basketball fan or not, whether you know the first thing about Zen beliefs, this is a great book for anyone interested in the concept of team. In a very entertaining way, this book shows how the principles of team and love can improve your life on and off the court. Plus, you will truly appreciate the success of Phil Jackson regardless of your loyalty to the Chicago Bulls.
