Sportswriter Charley Rosen and star basketball coach Phil Jackson collaborate on an account of their shared history in the world of basketball. They recount Jackson's journey from New York Knick to seven-time world champion NBA coach (six times with the Chicago Bulls and this year with the LA Lakers) and Rosen's journey to become 'the foremost chronicler of the game' (The Wall Street Journal). Packed with insights into the game and its major players, this, however, is not just a story of basketball but the story of a friendship forged in the sacred brotherhood of the hoop.

A native of the Bronx and longtime pal of basketball guru Phil Jackson, CHARLEY ROSEN led the league in technical fouls during each of his six years as a coach in the now-defunct Continental Basketball Association. Since then he has become the world’s foremost writer of fiction and nonfiction on the subject of basketball, chronicling the drama that takes place both on and off the court. His many novels include The House of Moses All-Stars, a New York Times Notable Book, and Sammy Wong: All-American. His non-fiction works include The Scandals of ’51: How the Gamblers Almost Killed College Basketball and More than a Game, with Phil Jackson. Rosen is an analyst for hoopshype.com and a devotee of the Triangle Offense. He lives in Accord, NY.
PHIL JACKSON is a seven-time world champion NBA coach (six times with Chicago, once with Los Angeles). He currently serves as the President of Basketball Operations for the New York Knicks.
