About this listen
In The Last Season: A Team In Search of Its Soul, Jackson tells the full inside story of the season that proved to be the final ride of this great Lakers dynasty. From its beginnings in the off-season, with the signing of the future Hall-of-Famers Karl Malone and Gary Payton and the enormous expectations it created, and the bombshell news of the felony sexual-assault charges against Kobe Bryant, one of the league's marquee superstars, Jackson describes the many challenges that arose during this turbulent season. Juggling enormous egos with enormous sums at stake, managing difficult relationships and public feuds, facing injuries, contract disputes, and team meltdowns, all in the shadow of the Kobe Bryant trial-slash-media circus, Phil Jackson somehow guided his team through to its fourth NBA Finals in his five years as its coach. There, finally, his team ran out of road, a failure Jackson examines with the same deep honesty and wisdom he brings to bear on the rest of this amazing season.
Few seasons in memory can rival this one for drama, and fewer coaches rival Phil Jackson in the ability to write about it with such wisdom and clarity. The combination has produced, in The Last Season, a book of tremendous human drama and timeless appeal, rich in lessons about coaching and about life.

Great listen into a lost but insightful season
For anyone who’s interested in The Last Dance, this audiobook provides an equally awesome experience except the highlights. It greatly shows how much work is put in an NBA season, and after all the efforts and talents on the squad, success is still not guaranteed!

Magnum Opus
“The Last Season” is a story, it’s an emotion, it’s a man’s philosophy, it’s a literary accounting of an icons philosophical, consciousness, reflective, telling of his legendary times around the Lakers ending of their dynasty. Which was headed by Shaq, and being couped by the begotten soldier and hall of famer, one of the best ever to touch a basketball Mr. Bryant. This is priceless as his life is moved on, narrator or not; has no effect on the words and the story told by this masterful work and again the best publicized book out by Jackson to date!
