The score will take care of itself when you take care of the effort that precedes the score.

There are little details in everything you do, and if you get away from any one of the little details, you're not teaching the thing as a whole. For it is little things which, together, make the whole. This, I think, is extremely important.

As a leader, you will receive a large amount of praise and criticism and you should not unduly affected by either.

What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player.

Many leaders don't listen, and it is one of the greatest methods we have of learning. You need to listen to those under your supervision and to those who are above you.

When you give total effort - everything you have - the score can never make you a loser. And when you do less, it can't somehow magically turn you into a winner.

Do not get so concerned with making a living that you forget to make a life.
