Best players spend their energy on these 5 controllables: 1. Attitude 2. Effort 3. Body Language 4. Self-Talk 5. Communication.

PLAYERS: If you're the most talented player on your team, you should also be the HARDEST WORKER on the team. Lead by example. Be the standard. Your natural talent might not be transferable to your teammates but your energy, enthusiasm, and effort can definitely rub off on them.

Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo: "The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."
