I have a problem sometimes with being too hyper.

Coaching takes patience.

I don't think anything less than perfect, even though I'm a human being. The way I work and go at things is to better myself in perfect terms.

I'm like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. If I'm not ready, the sled isn't going to go.

Timing is everything. Chemistry is something that you don't just throw in the frying pan and mix it up with another something, then throw it on top of something, then fry it up and put it in a tortilla and put in a microwave, heat it up and give it to you and expect it to taste good. You know? For those of you who can cook, y'all know what I'm talking about. If y'all can't cook, this doesn't concern you.

Coaching takes patience. I'm more enthused when teaching players who want it versus when I have to.

So you're dealing with a coach, and you're dealing with a guy who's actually experienced NBA basketball from a player's perspective and actually goes about it that way.
