Phil Jackson on coaching Shaq and Kobe: ‘Hardest challenge’ in 20 years

Once in awhile, there would be a snippet here and there in the media of the legendary coach trying to antagonize the refs, or prod one of his star players, but rarely did he admit to the difficulties of all the personalities he had to deal with, especially Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal.
