Publisher's Summary: With his slicked-back hair and tailored Armani suits, he is perhaps the most recognizable NBA coach ever. In this unauthorized biography, veteran sportswriter Mark Heisler reveals the story of Pat Riley, a coaching legend who was once a No. 1 draft pick. But after 9 years as a journeyman, Riley retired with a bum knee at the age of 31. With boundless determination, he set out to repackage the unfinished player into the polished coach, and has risen to prominence as the flashy leader of the champion Los Angeles Lakers and the revitalized New York Knicks. He's well-known for his ability to motivate teams, but what drives the man himself? Get the inside story on Riley's famous guarantee of a Laker repeat in 1987, how he developed his winning philosophy, and the vital role of Chris Riley in her husband's success. |
