I don't do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, I can expect half-hearted results. Most people get it the honest way by setting their goals and committing themselves to achieving their goals. That's the only way I did it anyway. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.

The best evaluation I can make of a player is to look in his eyes and see how scared they are.

It's always been said that when I can't find a way to do anything, I will find a way to do it.

Heart is what separates the good from the great.

Even when I'm old and grey, I won't be able to play it, but I'll still love the game.

The players today reflect how much the game has evolved and changed both in style and culture. [...] The game now has a wider appeal to a larger market.

I'd take 12 guys who had a strong passion for the game over 12 guys who don't respect the game.
