Coaches can talk and talk and talk about something, but if you get it on tape and show it to them, it is so much more effective.

Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you're not giving it all you've got.

Don't let winning make you soft. Don't let losing make you quit. Don't let your teammates down in any situation.

The best player I ever played with was Dennis Johnson.

I hate to lose more than I like to win.

There are many times when you are better off practicing than playing; but most people just don't understand that

Anytime you've got an opportunity to play for your country and win a gold medal, I think that takes it all. That's the greatest thing you could ever achieve in your sport. So, I have been very fortunate to play on great teams, but the gold medal was probably the best.
