Athletes that can't listen, can condition.

If you're going to have to beg them to play, it's not going to work.

Though I'd have to say it was generally the guys in Detroit, as a group, that won the two Championships. They were terrific and I always look back very fondly.

A lot of guys go through their whole careers and don't win a championship, but are still great coaches.

The important thing is to get the right players on the team so Mike can be successful.

If one of our players gets his second foul in the first half, then he must come out of the game and not re-enter until the second half. To play defense and not foul is an art that must be mastered if you are going to be successful.

The first shot does not beat you.
