Good sound habits are more important than rules - use concepts.

I have a plan of action, but the game is a game of adjustments.

That's why basketball was so good, because I didn't really need you or anyone else to play it. It would be better if we played four-on-four or five-on-five, but I could go out there alone.

Each group and each youngster is different. As a leader or coach, you get to know what they need.

A leader has to show the face his team needs to see.

Courage gives a leader the ability to stand straight and not sway, no matter which way the wind blows.

Throughout the season, I look into my players eyes to gauge feelings, confidence levels, and to establish instant trust.
