Description
This 1995 “Sacred Hoops: Spiritual Lessons of a Hardwood Warrior” hardcover book published by Hyperion Press is hand signed by Phil Jackson with a black pen and has an inscription of “To Tony”. Phil Jackson, coach of the three-time national champion Chicago Bulls, explains his thoughtful approach to nurturing a positive group dynamic, revealing a deeply soulful outlook based on Eastern and Native American thought. He clearly details the methods he has used to teach his players how to think collectively, look beyond individual jealousies, overcome anger and yet still play aggressively. In a unique and inspirational book, the head coach of the Chicago Bulls writes about how he motivates and creates unity on the team, using the principles of Zen Buddhism. At the heart of his work is Jackson's philosophy of mindful basketball--and his lifelong quest to bring enlightenment to the competitive world of professional sports.
