I won 1,098 games, and eight national championships, and coached in four different decades. But what I see are not the numbers. I see their faces.

You spend more of the game preparing to win in the final seconds. And that is what separates winners from losers.

Admit to and make yourself accountable for mistakes. How can you improve if you're never wrong?

I think I can help others just by my example.

Attitude lies somewhere between emotion and logic. It's that curious mix of optimism and determination that enables you to maintain a positive outlook and to continue plodding in the face of the most adverse circumstances.

Most people get excited about games, but I've got to be excited about practice, because that's my classroom.

I really felt like we had to have a go to player.
