I believe a big part of leadership is about winning the moment.

I love practice. It is when a coach exercises the most control over the improvement of his or her team.

The best teams are team in any sport that lose themselves in the team. The individuals lose their identity. And their identities come about as a result of being in the team first.

Footwork is one of the primary prerequisites to becoming a great player

When I went to high school, an all-boys' school, a Catholic school, I tried out for football, and I didn't make it. It was the first time, athletically, that I was knocked down.

When I had troubles, I'd go out - with basketball, you can do it by yourself, too. So you'd go out and shoot, and you'd fantasize.

I don't look at myself as a basketball coach. I look at myself as a leader who happens to coach basketball.
