Think and then act. Never act and then alibi.

I'm not against taking shots, but I am against taking bad shots.

Treat each player as your own son/daughter if you can...the parents have invested in you.

Don't let a week go by without conferences with each player, you can't teach it all on the floor.

Unless you plan to out-rebound and out-shoot everyone you play, then you better learn to handle the ball.

Everyone should want to excel in life. You should never take the desire to excel away from the human race.

You must be sure that you give back something that's beneficial to the game. Any of the teaching you do must be for the benefit of the men who play.
