1991 Chicago Bulls lifting on game day 😤
Back when most thought it was crazy.
The Bulls knew better: morning weights kept them strong, physical, and fresh through the long season + playoffs.
MJ & Scottie didn’t skip it.
Neither should you.
In-season lifting = non-negotiable
Obsession is a choice: Kobe made that decision. Now you can see his peers reflecting on how they chose opposite. Now that he is no longer here we see who respected his choices. Long Live The Legacy. There is nothing the opposition can say or do to rewrite what is etched in eternity. Kobe don’t need a campaign. The pain was real. The sweat was real. The tears were real. Now the Glory stands alone. #mamba #kobe #mambamentality
“Give me toughness over talent any day - I can take a tough kid and make him a better player but there is no coaching for a kid that’s soft” - Jim Calhoun
“Good players want coached.
Great players you can’t coach them enough, they want more, more, more.
Inconsistent players want to be coached on their terms”
This dude’s story is unreal

“We should talk louder, nobody cares if you’re corny or not, we’re trying to win” - Jalen Brunson
A lot of young hoopers that are trying to be cool should listen to this message
"Any coach will tell you that a player led locker room is better than a coaching lead locker room - giving ownership and finding their voice."
When players lead, accountability stops being optional.
I can get you to work hard.
But I cannot give you the will to want to come out first.
That's competing.
Competing is doing the very best with what you have, especially when circumstances, opposition, and adversity are stacked against you, and STILL pushing through anyway.
“You can always HEAR a good team.
The bad teams… you never hear. They don’t ever talk.
They don’t talk to each other. They don’t talk on defense, they don’t talk in transition.”
- Kelvin Sampson
