I have no individual goals. We play for one reason and that’s to win the title. Practice is more important
than the games, and I will practice when I’m hurt, when 95 percent of the players in this league would
sit out. I expect all of you to do the same thing. You will follow my lead. ”Michael Jordan to the Chicago Bulls”.

To me, the philosophy of a successful Basketball Coach is to help guide players towards a high level of success. My personal summed up philosophy is in seven words, ”Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together”. These strategies will the cornerstone to my program’s vision effort. Hard means with effort, determination and courage; Smart means with proper execution and poise, Together means unselfishly, trusting your teammates and doing everything possible not to let them down. I believe if we keep our focus on these tenets, success will come. We will seldom talk about winning with our team, winning will simply be a product of this process. Each player can accomplish these aspects of our philosophy; there will be no short cuts. We will measure our success by how we improve in these areas.
