Now *Phil Jackson* is going to be endorsing a signature basketball shoe!

[Ken Cheng]

The current coach of the L.A. Lakers and former coach of the Chicago Bulls, who has won ten NBA Championships as a head coach, but not even one as a player, has a deal to promote a new basketball shoe marketed under his name.

Air Jackson?

I thought he had 2 rings as a player?

Phil was basically a reserve player but he was on the Knicks championship team in 1973. He was also on the Knicks championship team that won it in 1970 but I guess that doesn't count since he was out most of that season.

Phil Jackson is a transcendental figure in the NBA. He's just at a level beyond MJ and Kobe. If Lebron somehow had him as a coach, I'm certain Lebron would be winning championships.

I'm not into those overpriced shoes but you can't lose by going with Phil Jackson -- literally.
