The Last Season: A Team in Search of Its Soul
By: Phil Jackson, With Michael Arkush
One of the most successful coaches in the history of Basketball offers his personal
account of a season like no other-the extraordinary ride of the 2003-2004 Los Angeles
Lakers. From the signing of the future Hall-of-Famers Karl Malone and Gary Payton, to the
intricacies of managing difficult relationships and public feuds, facing Shaq's injuries,
contract disputes, and team meltdowns, all in the shadow of the Kobe Bryant
trial-slash-media circus, Phil Jackson somehow guided his team through to its fourth NBA
Finals in his five years as its coach. With explosive revelations and never-before-told
insights, Jackson brings to life this amazing season coaching a team as talented, and as
troubled as any he's ever known.
