Winning Is Only Important In War And

If Winning Weren't Important Nobody Would Keep Score.

I Tell The Players That They Can't Relive Any Day In Their Lives And That They Can't Relive The Minutes Of A Game, So They Should Make A Great Effort, A Mount Everest Type Effort, To Live Up To Their Potential. Success Is A Communal Type Thing, And If We Win, Then Everyone Can Be Considered Successful And We Can Move Uptown Together.

It Bothers Me That The Average Fan, The Average Sportswriter For That Matter, Pays So Much Attention To What's In A Box Score. A Box Score Does Not Properly Represent The Most Important Thing - Team Play. It Shows Some Guy Scoring 27 Points, But It Doesn't Show That My 27-point Man Let His Guy Score 30.

It's A Profession In Which, The Longer You Stay, The Closer You Are To Being Fired.

Live Every Day As If It Were Saturday Night.
