Just Do What You Do Best.

And I Have Been Very Blessed, Having Coached Some Of The Greatest That Have Ever Played The Game. But If I Had To Start A Team Today, The Greatest Player And The One Guy I Would Take Would Be Larry Bird.

To Be A Successful Coach You Should Be And Look Prepared. You Must Be A Man Of Integrity. Never Break Your Word. Don't Have Two Sets Of Standards. Remember You Don't Handle Players-you Handle Pets. You Deal With Players. Stand Up For Your Players. Show Them You Care-on And Off The Court. Very Important-it's Not 'how' Or 'what' You Say But What They Absorb.

If I'm Going To Coach The Players, I Want Some Say On Who They're Going To Be.

If You're Keeping Score, Win!

The Most Important Thing In Coaching Is Communication. It's Not What You Say As Much As What They Absorb.
