If you're not talking, you're not playing defense

I'm looking for activity. I put players in and take them out based on effort and defense, not making or missing shots

If you're a great defensive player, you're a great defensive player 100% of the time. You can't be a great defensive player half of the time because you didn't get the ball once or twice. That can't sidetrack you. It's got to be 'I live for my defense, and my offense I'll get. But I can't let it affect my defense. Nothing affects my defense.'

Sometimes you will hate me because I will tell you the truth about your game. And the truth can hurt/humble you

I just think a guy that knows how to play when you put him on a good team, he can be really good.

If you want to go quickly, go by yourself - if you want to go farther, go in a group.

This team is one execution away from being a very good basketball team.
