Always Keep An Open Mind And A Compassionate Heart.

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.

Despite Their Tremendous Talent, (nba Players) Are Still, By And Large, Young Adults, Seeking Validation From An Authority Figure, And There Is No Greater Authority Figure On A Team Than The Coach. Needless To Say, In Today's Warped, Self-indulgent Climate, Too Many Players Couldn't Care Less About Appeasing The Coach.

Coaching Is Salesmanship. Coaching Is Winning Players Over And Convincing Them They Have To Play Together. It Takes A Team Conviction To Play Together To Make Things Work.
