I think the most important thing about coaching is that you have to have a sense of confidence about what you're doing.

The sign of a great player is how much he elevates his colleagues' performance.

The best thing that I think happened to me was I got the opportunity to have really good players and we were able to meet the demand of the competition. And I think that's what I value most.

For us tall people, the whole key is that your hips and your knees should form a right angle when you sit down. That's where backs and hips get to be problems for big guys.

The real value in everything you do is in the details.

You can't force your will on people. If you want them to act differently, you need to inspire them to change themselves

Once you've done the mental work, there comes a point you have to throw yourself into the action and put your heart on the line. That means not only being brave, but being compassionate towards yourself, your teammates and your opponents.
