The Inspiration and Wisdom of Coach Bettis is always with us at Lakota West.

Coaches exchanging words in handshake lines is embarrassing . Coach your team. Shake hands and move on. No need to have an assistants confront the opposing teams head coach. If a coach has an issue it should be head coach to head coach.

Kobe worked like he had no talent, then he played like he believed he was the best player in the world.

Prepare with humility, perform with confidence.

Everybody in the stands thinks they know what’s best for a team or who should play. They don’t spend anytime w/ the team. Don’t see how players practice, attitude, effort, don’t know their academic standing, or how well they know plays. Yet, EVERYONE thinks it’s easy & simple.

"I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot."

“It’s not about the number of hours you practice, it’s about the number of hours your mind is present during the practice.”
- Kobe Bryant

Wow.

Read that again.
And again.
And again.

Michael Jordan on Kobe: “he was like a little brother to me.”

[Peter King @peter_king]

This is so devastating. So sad for the Bryant family and all on board. Amazing how much it can hurt when someone you never met, and his precious daughter, and 3 others are lost like this.

[Julius Dr J Erving @JuliusErving]

Sadly absorbing the tragic news about my teammates loss of his Son and granddaughter. Joe and Pam I humbly offer my condolences. Vanessa so sorry for your loss and pray you remain strong and focused on you and Kobe’s dreams for your family. Here Always for you...

Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

To all of my friends, thank you. Each of you have shared part of yourself with me and made my life better. I have tried to do the same. If you were here I would hug you like I just hugged my family. It hurts that it takes a tragedy to remind us of our mortality.#hugyourfriends
