Basketball is sharing.

The ideal way to win a championship is step by step.

Basketball is a simple game. Your goal is penetration, get the ball close to the basket, and there are three ways to do that. Pass, dribble and offensive rebound.

Not only is there more to life than basketball, there's a lot more to basketball than basketball.

Basketball, unlike football with its prescribed routes, is an improvisational game, similar to jazz. If someone drops a note, someone else must step into the vacuum and drive the beat that sustains the team.

My first act after being named head coach of the Bulls was to formulate a vision for the team. I had to take into account not only what I wanted to achieve, but how I was going to get there.

If you have a clear mind . . . you won't have to search for direction. Direction will come to you.
