On the Hardwood: Chicago Bulls also takes readers back to a time when there were no championship banners to speak of, and enables readers to feel the depths of the Bulls losses before enjoying the elation of the many victories that ensued. There may also be a word or two about arguably the greatest player, Michael Jordan, and greatest coach, Phil Jackson, of the modern era.
