Phil Jackson Tweets Picture Of His 13 NBA Championship Rings

Daniel Buerge

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.

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.

  1. New York Knicks; 1970*
  2. New York Knicks; 1973*
  3. Chicago Bulls; 1991
  4. Chicago Bulls; 1992
  5. Chicago Bulls; 1993
  6. Chicago Bulls; 1996
  7. Chicago Bulls; 1997
  8. Chicago Bulls; 1998
  9. Los Angeles Lakers; 2000
  10. Los Angeles Lakers; 2001
  11. Los Angeles Lakers’ 2002
  12. Los Angeles Lakers; 2009
  13. 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.
