I talked to the team a lot about staying power. You never find out if you have that until you've been beaten down a few times.

Look, coaching is about human interaction and trying to know your players. Any coach would tell you that. I'm no different.

Knowledge is confidence. And confidence lets you play fast.

I have always felt like you really don't have a genuine confidence unless you demonstrate the ability to do something. You can talk about it, but you have to demonstrate it.

Look, when you are starting to put something together, you want the pudding to come out good. You're trying to put in the right ingredients.

If they want you to cook the dinner, at least they ought to let you shop for some of the groceries.

The time to worry is before you place the bet - not after the wheel is spinning. Once it spins, you forget about it.
