In my dealings with the press, I was like the guy who goes into the cathouse and the madam gets him prepared and looks at him and says, "Who are you going to satisfy with that?" And he looks back at her and says, "Me." That's kind of my sense of humor at times.

I don't think I have ever been out of control.

Practice structure determines success.

As his team prepares, a coach's entire being must be concentrated on winning games.

Players must be able to carry out simple instructions from the bench to the court. If they can't, then they can't play

I think the ability to motivate might be interpreted as the ability to lead, or to show people their goals or, perhaps more important, what their potential is - as a person as well as a player. You've got to show players that being part of a team will carry over to the experience of becoming part of society.

When my time on earth is done and my activities here are past, I want them to bury me upside down, so my critics can kiss my ass.
