Leaders show respect for people by giving them time.

In our program, the truth is the basis of all we do. There is nothing more important than the truth because there's nothing more powerful than the truth. Consequently, on our team, we always tell each other the truth. We must be honest with one another. There is no other way.

A basketball team is like the five fingers on your hand. If you can get them all together, you have a fist. That's how I want you to play.

Making shots counts, but not as much as the people who make them.

Confidence shared is better than confidence only in yourself.

I have a rule on my team: When we talk to one another, we look each other right in the eye, because I think it's tough to lie to somebody. You give respect to somebody.

Sometimes in a defeat, you can set the stage for future victory.
