Basketball is a sport that involves the subtle interweaving of players at full speed to the point where they are thinking and moving as one.

I don't believe in curfews, because you can't treat men like they were boys without forfeiting a certain level of trust.

A coach's main job is to reawaken a spirit in which the players can blend together effortlessly.

I thrive on challenges, and there is no more imposing challenge for someone in my profession than winning an NBA title.

Yes, victory is sweet, but it doesn't necessarily make life any easier the next season or even the next day.

I'm not trying to find answers anymore. I'm trying to live what I know.

Everybody has an opportunity to play a role, a playmaking role, so it makes it harder to coach. It takes a little more time.
