Sacred Hoops
Spiritual Lessons of a Hardwood Warrior
About the book
Phil Jackson, then coach of the Chicago Bulls, sets out an approach to leadership drawn from Eastern and Native American thought and describes how he applied it with his NBA team. Written with Hugh Delehanty, the book joins sports and spirituality. Jackson details how he taught players to think as a group, look past personal jealousies, and overcome anger while still playing aggressively. Other lessons include acting with a clear mind, respecting the opponent, staying calm and focused in the middle of chaos, and putting the me in service of the we. It was published in 1995.
