  • Bill Cartwright
    Bill Cartwright Bill Cartwright is a winner! He was in his basketball career, he is in his business career and he continues to be a winner in his family life. Cartwright was a 7’1” NBA center was a dominant physical presence for 3 teams. He was drafted in the 1st round of the 1979 NBA draft, #3 overall, by the New York Knicks. He made an All-Star Game appearance in his rookie season and was named to the All Rookie First Team. He was named team captain of the Knicks but 4 separate fractures to his foot began to slow him steps. Bill was traded to the Chicago Bulls in 1988 and it was here that he fully established himself as a presence. He was once again named team captain and led the Bulls to 3 consecutive NBA championships in 1991, 1992, and 1993. In 1994, he moved on as a free agent to the Seattle SuperSonics where he spent the final season of his 16 year playing career. In 1996, Bill rejoined the Chicago Bulls as an assistant coach and won two more NBA championships with the team in 1997 and 1998. In 2001, he took over the Bulls’ head coach where he remained until 2003, coaching a team that had been stripped of its best players. He moved on from Chicago to be an assistant coach with the New Jersey Nets and Phoenix Suns before spending the 2013 season coaching in Japan and 2014 as head coach of the Mexican National Team. Cartwright has firmly established himself in the business world as the owner of a car dealership and a restaurant and he recently divested himself from a successful security services firm.

  • The Inside Story of One Turbulent Season with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls Pour Chaque Appareil
    Pour Kindle The Jordan Rules: The Inside Story of One Turbulent Season with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls Sam Smith’s seminal, New York Times bestselling “eye-opener” (The San Diego Union-Tribune) on Michael Jordan and the 1990-1991 Chicago Bulls team—perfect for fans of ESPN’s hit documentary series The Last Dance. This is the book that changed the way the world viewed Michael Jordan, while delivering nonstop excitement, tension, and thrills. The Jordan Rules chronicles the season that changed everything for Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. After losing in the playoffs to the “Bad Boys” Detroit Pistons for three consecutive years, the Bulls finally broke through and swept the Pistons in the 1991 Eastern Conference Finals, on the way to their first NBA championship. Celebrated sportswriter Sam Smith was there for the entire ride. He reveals a candid and provocative picture of Michael Jordan during the season in which his legacy began to be defined, and seeks to figure out what drove him. The Jordan Rules covers everything from his stormy relationships with his coaches and teammates and power struggles with management—including verbal attacks on general manager Jerry Krause and tantrums against coach Phil Jackson—to Jordan’s obsessions with becoming the leading scorer, and his refusal to pass the ball in the crucial minutes of big games. Jordan’s teammates also tell their side of the story, from Scottie Pippen, to Horace Grant, to Bill Cartwright. And Phil Jackson—the former flower child who blossomed into one of the NBA’s top motivators and finally found a way to coax Jordan and the Bulls to their first title—is studied up close.

  • Opinions Vary on Fouling Late in Games
    NEWSLETTER #15 - 2005-06 TO FOUL OR NOT TO FOUL "Team A is up 3 with 15 seconds remaining. Team B has the ball. Both teams in bonus. If you are team A do you foul, and send them to the line?" The question to foul or not to foul at the end of the game has been posed several times this year. Most recently, a head varsity coach from Strasburg, Illinois posed the question after he was taken to OT in 3 of his last 4 games on late shots. Xavier has also had bad luck in the same situation over the past 2 years. Most unforgetable was last year at the University of Miami (FL). Miami in bounded the ball with 13.8 left on the clock. With 8 seconds to go, Robert Hite hit a 3 with to tie the game and send it to overtime. Fortinuatly for us, we outscored the Canes 18-5 in OT and escaped Florida with a big win. Recently, Jay Bilas from ESPN.com did a great piece on this endless dilema on his online blog. Opinions vary on fouling late in games http://insider.espn.go.com/ncb/insider/columns/story?columnist=bilas_jay&id=2324605&univLogin02=stateChanged The strategy of fouling in late-game situations, when one team is ahead by three points and its opponent has the ball with a chance to tie, has long been debated. Some say, without reservation, that it is a no-brainer to foul when up three points … but many are not as certain as to when the "cut line" is on the clock.
