Zen Master Tells All.

"The meeting with Kobe reinforced an idea I had been contemplating since July, since Colorado, since everything changed. I decided to enlist a therapist to help me cope with what will surely be the most turbulent season of my coaching career. After receiving a few recommendations, I selected a therapist who has dealt with narcissistic behavior in the Los Angeles public school system. He'll be right at home here." Sports Illustrated publishes some revealing excerpts from Phil Jackson's forthcoming book on the 2003-2004 Laker season, and it's already clear this tome won't do much for Kobe's tattered reputation around the league...he comes off here as a hopelessly arrogant prima donna, as well as an out-and-out terrible teammate.
