A SUPER TEAM…A SUPERSTAR…A SUPER EGO
The most gifted athlete ever to play the game, Michael Jordan rose to heights no basketball player had ever reached before. What drove Michael Jordan? The pursuit of team success…or of his own personal glory? The pursuit of excellence…or of his next multimillion-dollar endorsement? The flight of the man they call Air Jordan had been rocked by controversy. In The Jordan Rules, which chronicles the Chicago Bulls’ first championship season, Sam Smith takes the #1 Bull by the horns to reveal the team behind the man…and the man behind the Madison Avenue smile. Here is the inside game, both on and off the court, including:
Jordan’s power struggles with management, from verbal attacks on the general manager to tantrums against his coach Behind-the-scenes feuds, as Jordan punches a teammate in practice and refuses to pass the ball in the crucial minutes of big games The players who competed with His Airness for Air Time — Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, Bill Cartwright — telling their sides of the story A penetrating look at coach Phil Jackson, the former flower child who blossomed into one of the NBA’s top motivators and who finally found a way to coax “Michael and the Jordanaires” to the their first title
A provocative eyewitness account, The Jordan Rules delivers all the nonstop excitement, tension, and thrills of a championship season — and an intense, fascinating portrait of the incomparable Michael Jordan.

What struck me the most in the book was the attitude that Jordan had toward basketball. In the book Jordan talks about how he could not wait for his contract to end so that he could retire and play golf. I would think that the arguably best basketball player would never want to quit and would want to play for as long as possible and win as much as possible. I would defiantly read more books by Sam Smith. He did a great job getting a lot of information and quotes from the players and made a great..more

I had no idea that the Bulls first championship season was so dysfunctional. Jordan was selfish and hadn't realized yet that he couldn't win championships without the help of his teammates. This was the first season they implemented 'the triangle' in an effort to force the ball out of MJ's hands, but he kind of refused to use the offensive system and I got the sense they never really mastered it that year. The entire team was frustrated with MJ and his special treatment. Pippen and Paxson were n..more
My name is Connor To, and I have the privilege to interview the best basketball player ever, Michael Jordan. A biography about his life, called The Jordan Rules, by Sam Smith, breaks down his whole basketball career. A humble legend, born in Brooklyn, New York. He is one of the hardest workers ever to play the sport, always motivated and determined to be the best, and hated to lose, most of all. His legacy changed basketball forever, and will be known as one of the greatest basketball players an..more
He can do whatever he wants. It all comes so easy to him. He’s just not a basketball player.
The Jordan Rules follows the Chicago Bulls during the 1990/91 season. It's a chronological accounting of what happened and why. I found the book boring at times, wishing the author would've decided to skip some of the less exciting months. Or at least decided to give them less focus.

Finally read this book, you know, 25 years after it was relevant, but it's a great look into that Bulls first championship team of the 90s. At first I thought it was amazing that it didn't harm Jordan's reputation more, but then I realized that books are for nerds, and there's no place for nerds in sports.

Solid, revealing insider's tale on the MJ led Chicago Bulls. If you're interested in team psychology or the life of a pro sports team (or just a Bulls fan), this is the book for you. On a much deeper scale, what could be called a scathing analysis of Jordan in this book can also be viewed as a validation to the presence of the narcissistic, manically competitive shadows that complement the light of the gifted, excellent performers who are blessed to have achieved notable fame for it (in and out..more
Here is a book full of fun anecdotes and several engaging theses (Phil Jackson is a genius! Jerry Krause is a douchebag! Stacey King is the fat guy who sucks!) and mires all of this in shitty writing. I don't understand how a chronological, journalistic history about 15 people you basically know personally can somehow have a muddy chronology and manage to confuse, but Sam Smith managed to do it. Three stars basically by virtue of the fact that this is the minimum score I could give a book about..more
Smith does a good job of giving insight into the frame of mind that the 1990-91 Chicago Bulls were in, going into and through the season. I like how every player and coach is given their own profile apart from Jordan, and how they are revealed as humans whose job is to play and coach basketball, not as the 2-dimensional people that they are portrayed as by sports media. Also, how they managed egos, agendas, and moods to win the title. Was a quick, yet informatively entertaining read for me.

Sam Smith may be the most boring singer ever, but the writer Sam Smith is a very good basketball writer. The Jordan Rules is a 1992 nonfiction book by the writer Sam Smith, not the boring Sam Smith. Also, Sam Smith is correct: He is not the only one (named Sam Smith). Fun Fact: Michael Jordan (not the actor) hates this book.

Michael Jordan can be easily classified as the most talented player to ever play the game of basketball. Throughout his career, he has accomplished things never before accomplished by players before him. From watching his play, Sam Smith, the author of The Jordan Rules, formed many questions about what pushed Jordan to reach his goals. His book, The Jordan Rules, is filled with many controversial answers to many of his questions. Mainly: what drove Michael Jordan? To answer this question, Sam Sm..more

I was excited to finally read this book after much criticism that followed it's release. Finally, here was a third person account of what went on behind the life of mystical Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls.
I think Sam Smith is one of the only handful of people who could have given such an insightful view of Jordan and the Bulls heading into their first championship. His access to the team and players during the late 80s and 90s was pivotal to writing the book.

the book was worth reading for me if only because it's about one of my all-time favorite teams, and because i had never read it when it first came out, even though it was the source of much discussion and controversy back then. it's also interesting to remember the context of that team--the prevailing idea of the time that no MJ-led team would ever win a title, juxtaposed with the knowledge that he ended up with six rings.

This book details the internal workings of the Chicago Bulls during the 1990/91 season as they won their first NBA Championship. What emerges is a fascinating look at the personalities, both on and off the court, of the Chicago Bulls players and management. Michael Jordan comes across as not just competitive but super-competitive, seemingly sometimes at the expense of personal relationships. Scottie Pippen comes across as being overly affect by the Bull’s pursuit of Toni Kokoc. Horace Grant come..more
This book gave a lot of insight into Michael Jordan 'off the court', meaning at practice, in the locker room, his home life, and the way he interacted with those people in his circle. His competitive streak and lack of patience with other players is well documented, but this book sheds additional light on how hard he pushed himself, and others, to achieve excellence. He doesn't took losing well....at anything! Sam Smith gives some perspective from his teammates and what it was really like to..more
The Jordan Rules is a book that gives you stories of Michael Jordan that you cant get from watching highlights. There are some of his highlights, but it tells about baseball, his work ethic, and other facts and stories that give you a greater understanding of the greatest basketball player to ever live. It tells about the passion, like when him and his teammates would go at it in practice and why. I was interested throughout the whole book, and would recommend this to anyone who considers themse..more

We live in an age where it's very, very easy to get caught up in the moment. There are so many news and pop-culture outlets, talking heads, and media programs that exist almost solely to provoke instant nostalgia and put current events into historical perspective. Every big game by an athlete was the GREATEST PERFORMANCE IN HISTORY and every crappy movie that comes out is the worst. movie. ever. It's easy to lose perspective.

Interesting look at how high-level teams and organizations function, removes the halo a bit from one of the all-time greats and shows him as brash, impetuous, gifted, and very human. Shows how a championship team was forged..book is fairly complimentary of Phil Jackson's management skills and personality. Book jumps around a lot at the end and gets a bit confusing. Its pretty in-depth in terms of the day-to-day and week to week grind..no writer could have this level of access today, so its def..more
It has some good content but I found it very poorly written. It reads like something that was written in a great rush, which is exactly what happened.
The stories of what was going on behind the scene at the time are pretty interesting, although obviously they don't resonate in 2018 as they did in 1991.
I wouldn't say it's ESSENTIAL reading, but if you're a big Michael Jordan fan or followed the NBA closely in the 1990s it's probably worth a read.

Interesting.
The alternative title could have been, 'Why, Yes, Michael Jordan Really Was An Unpleasant Teammate.' It's also a fascinating glimpse of Phil Jackson before he became the Zen Master, as it seems as if he was barely holding on to the reins of the team; and, even then, liked to play little mind games. It's crazy that they managed to be cohesive enough to be as successful as they were.

Jordan Rules offers an insight into the magical seasons of the early 1990s. I learned many things about those early Bulls (I wasn't born then), especially the antics and personality of Michael Jordan. Smith reveals the many terrible things about my role model including his gambling addiction, bullying of teammates (especially young guys), hatred toward management, and much more. Read this, if you're looking to turn back the clock to 90s basketball.

A classic on how champions are made, if not in the elegant manner one could think from the outside. Not being a star like Jordan makes one struggle when trying to understand some of his actions throughout the winning season. And that's what it makes the book most interesting to me, as it then focuses on how the rest of the players react to being close to the only man who can bring them close to a ring, while at the same time suffering as diminished role players.

Very entertaining read about the Chicago Bulls' first championship run. Michael Jordan was savage on most of his teammates and even the general manager of the team, but he grew to trust the guys and have respect for them. If he didn't, then his legacy as a basketball player might have been viewed differently.
I'd never read it before, and it's amazing. It's hard to think of another sports book (and I've read a ton of them) that has this much insider detail. I remember it being considered an MJ hitjob when it came out, and he does not come across well in the book, but in the end I think it's honest, and what MJ has revealed about his character since then confirms that.

I could give this three stars, but sticking with two. It's just really boring. Page after page after page about how Jordan alienated his teammates and shot all the time. Mixed in are some interesting stories and a seemingly game-by-game chronicle of the season. I skimmed large sections.
This was a good book for any basketball fan. It really gives an inside look at the 90-91 Bulls team that won their first title. I thought it was well written and interesting seeing how the team dynamic changed through the season and into the playoffs.
Jordan Rules is fantastic. Extremely ‘inside baseball’ and with language that feels a bit dated now, this is still an extraordinary window into the first championship for the sport’s greatest ever player. Worth a read for anyone in interested in basketball, leadership or sports history.

I thought this book was a good book because it basically was talking about how M.J did his job and how he did his job well. This book is basically all about his life and how he came up as a little Chicago kid that wanted to do something with his self.
