Even Though We Want Huge Individual Egos,

During The Season, Your Team Should Be Led With Exuberance And Excitement. You Should Live The Journey. You Should Live It Right. You Should Live It Together. You Should Live It Shared. You Should Try To Make One Another Better. You Should Get On One Another If Somebody's Not Doing Their Part. You Should Hug One Another When They Are. You Should Be Disappointed In A Loss And Exhilarated In A Win. It's All About The Journey.

In Putting Together Your Standards, Remember That It Is Essential To Involve Your Entire Team. Standards Are Not Rules Issued By The Boss; They Are A Collective Identity. Remember, Standards Are The Things That You Do All The Time And The Things For Which You Hold One Another Accountable.

There Are Five Fundamental Qualities That Make Every Team Great: Communication, Trust, Collective Responsibility, Caring And Pride. I Like To Think Of Each As A Separate Finger On The Fist. Any One Individually Is Important. But All Of Them Together Are Unbeatable

Never Let A Person's Weakness Get In The Way Of Their Strength.

A Basketball Team Is Like The Five Fingers On Your Hand. If You Can Get Them All Together, You Have A Fist. That's How I Want You To Play.
