Los Angeles Lakers head coach, Phil Jackson will be featured in a special interview during the ABC broadcast of Sunday's Laker game with the Spurs. An interview conducted by Magic Johnson, Phil Jackson discusses how he anticipates retiring after the 2009-2010 NBA season, when his contract with the Lakers expires. Jackson stresses that Lakers owner Jerry Buss has emphasized his desire to keep Jackson as coach, but he just wants to take one season at a time.
Considered one of the greatest coaches of all-time, 1010-426 record, an incredible .703 winning percentage as well as a 193-84 playoff record. He owns nine championship rings (6 with Chicago, 3 with Los Angeles) and has never hid his desire to own more championship rings than the late Boston head coach, Red Auerback, who also owns nine with Boston. Jackson has coached the most dominant player to ever play the game, Michael Jordan and was behind the nearly untouchable perfect season in the 95-96 season, going 72-10 with the Chicago Bulls.
At age 63, and two hip replacement surgeries, Jackson has been an NBA head coach for 18 years, after a 12-year playing career. He was also inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2007. What this means for the Los Angeles Lakers franchise remains to be unseen, but Jackson is sure to aim for that 10th ring in the next two years.
Look out for the interview this Sunday on ABC.
Phil starting to look old. I wonder if Jeannie Buss just gets on top all the time
I just saw the interview. He said NOTHING that you reported. Watch it first before you post.
Good afternoon. Go often to the house of thy friend; for weeds soon choke up the unused path.
