If you are delusional about your future, you are most likely delusional about the present too.

Players that want to be the best want the truth, good and bad.

Your players with the messiest lockers are not usually the ones who work the hardest.

Players that say yes to something that makes them uncomfortable improve during the offseason.

Mentally tough players respond when a couple of possessions don’t go their way by being able to make the right play on the next possession.

Not every player can be the best player on the team.

Players that never know the score in a pickup game better not say they are competitive.

Change is neither good nor bad. Change is inevitable.

Successful athletes often have to say no to friends and yes to the work.

Nothing worse than when a player throws an uncatchable pass to someone and blames the receiver.

For numerous reasons if you’re not willing to eat peanut butter and jelly for lunch, don’t get into college coaching.

Dominant teams have experience, mental and physical toughness, the determination to defend and rebound, and have ability to close out games.

Nobody listens to people that complain and nobody cares as well.

Don’t be the type of player that doesn’t work on the fundamentals. It will catch up to you.

I have over 40 years being involved at a basketball camp during my life and somehow kids are now wearing pajama bottoms to camp.

If I had a dollar for everytime I said don’t turn the ball over in practice, I would be a rich man.

A great basketball workout consists of: A. Game reps game speed shooting ball handling etc. B. Quality 5 v 5 / 3 v 3 play C. ohysical and mental conditioning D. All of the above Go be the best teammate you can be.

Trying to find the GOAT

The team that has the most “my bads” are usually losing.

When coaches and players stop doing what is expected and a little bit more, they are falling behind.
