Phil Jackson on Twitter has pretty much been the best thing to happen to Twitter since…Twitter? Anyways, Jackson has had a good time doing things like hitting on Jeanie Buss, tweeting typos and making fun of Pau Gasol’s practice habits.

Now, the so-called Zen Master is at it again. And by at it again I mean he’s tweeting pictures of his 13 championship rings. Yes. Thirteen.
@sthomas141 here’s the best I can do…the 2 Knick rings are in the front of the picture. twitter.com/PhilJackson11/…

That’s a lot of jewelry.
Jackson’s book, Eleven Rings, will be out next week. I guess the title Thirteen Rings just didn’t have a good enough ring to it. Pun. Or that whole unlucky 13 thing scared away some publishers.
Anyways, Jackson’s ring picture is pretty tremendous. Here’s a list of the seasons (and teams) he won each ring with. Asterisks indicate rings won as a player.
- New York Knicks; 1970*
- New York Knicks; 1973*
- Chicago Bulls; 1991
- Chicago Bulls; 1992
- Chicago Bulls; 1993
- Chicago Bulls; 1996
- Chicago Bulls; 1997
- Chicago Bulls; 1998
- Los Angeles Lakers; 2000
- Los Angeles Lakers; 2001
- Los Angeles Lakers’ 2002
- Los Angeles Lakers; 2009
- Los Angeles Lakers; 2010
And now my fingers are tired from typing all that.
Anyways, it’s kind of crazy to see this picture and know that each ring represents a championship that Jackson was part of. I guess Phil’s been kind of successful over his career.
