      I had the similar situation with Jerry Jones. Well. I was a cook in Florida. Jerry was with his family. I was told to leave him alone. Chef left i walked out. I asked if he was the famous cowboys owner. He smiled and said yes. I said go bears. Monsters will beat your great franchise this year. He smiled and i told him it was a pleasure. He smiled and took off his ring. It was a super bowl ring. He handed it to me. Smiling he said. I hope next time we meet your team has more then one ring. I smiled and actually showed off his ring. My chef not so happy but realized im a big fan. He let it slde. I lived near Pensacola. Home of emmit smith and roy jones jr.. Still not a fan but he was very nice

    PJ sometimes gets over looked when people say superstars win championships and coaching is just a small factor. But how many rings have Shaq, Kobe, Pippen, and MJ won before and after being coached by him? Just one by Shaq with another great HC in Pat Riley. And PJ as their coach won a total of 11 rings together. Which is an amazing feat.

    Phil Jackson is the GREATEST COACH EVER and Michael Jordan is THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Nobody and I mean nobody will and can ever match what MJ has done. Won 3-peat, 3 finals MVP and 7 scoring titles then retired. He came back then won his second 3-peat, 3 more finals MVPs, and 3 more scoring titles. All in all he won 2 e-peat championships, 6 finals MVP, and 10 scoring titles all with the same team before he retired again from the Bulls for good.. Michael Jeffrey Jordan is the GOAT then, now and forever.

      Not quite the full story. He left the Bulls at the end of the 98 season after the championship and went to the Washington Wizards. He played there 5 years and then retired in 2003. In the last 5 years his stats dwindled down and he didn't make the playoffs. That's how he finished his NBA career as a player.

Going with old age, there were guys that played at 40 that played better than MJ a 40. MJ played never won without Pippen period. Just sad real basketball fans know there's no rings without Pippen.

    Is anyone reminded of Arsenio Hall when John Salley is interviewing Phil Jackson? I think I heard somewhere that Salley and Hall were friends. Salley ought to start a podcast because he seems to have a knack for being an engaging host.

    Phil got it wrong when he said Wilt missed 2 minutes of OT, Wilt missed 8 minutes because he was ejected by the ref with 8 minutes remaining in a game. Wilt averaged 48.5 minutes including OT that year, 61-62. Also 50 points and about 23 rebounds that year. But Bill Russell was MVP, and deserved it too.

    Imagine how crazy of an athlete Wilt was that Phil says he was more athletic than Shaq

    Crazy to think he coached 12 years and either won the ring 9 times or got to a game 7 2 of the 3 times he didn't win it all ... but 1 time he got beat in 6 to shaq ...how ironic...Phil's a genius ...

    What's the name Phil Jackson's in this interview?

    Every time John makes marijuana statement, he looks at Phil certain way and Phil tries not to give him any reaction. There are many locker room incidents involving marijuana and it only stays in the locker room.

      Phil Jackson has done acid. Talking about weed doesn't even amuse him
