Phil Jackson (born September 17, 1945) is an American profesional basketball head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers and former NBA player from 1969-1979. He re-joined the Los Angeles Lakers as their head coach on June 14, 2005, less than one year after he left the team to take a year off from coaching. Jackson was elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2007.
Jackson, the NBA's career leader in playoff victories and playoff winning percentage, has won ten NBA titles, beating Red Auerbach for the most all-time.
Jackson guided the Lakers to three titles in his first stint as their head coach from 1999-2004, and guided the Chicago Bulls to six NBA championships in his nine years as head coach from 1989-1998. He won his 10th in 2009.
Jackson won his first championship ring as a coach when he guided the Albany Patroons to the 1984 Continental Basketball Association championship.
Going into the 2005-06 season, Jackson owns a career coaching record of 832-316, his .725 winning percentage being by far the best in NBA annals. He has a career playoff record of 175-69, his winning percentage of .717 also heading the list. In terms of most victories, Jackson is tied with Cotton Fitzsimmons for 10th in the regular season but stands alone at number one in the playoffs... More
