Jeter: “It’s a challenge to get your guys to talk about themselves. They come up here and only talk about their teammates. All they care about is the team and winning on the field.”

Bochy: “That’s how you win.”

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

"Every single day I chased after 2 things: perfection & excellence- knowing full well I would ever attain
either.
The mere fact that I would pursue them, I would almost always beat my opponents, b/c they would never chase something that didn't have guarantees attached." -Kobe

“None of those guys on Miami are sitting there saying ‘well I didn’t play’ or ‘man they put in so and so.’

They’re just all about winning.

When you have that championship mentality, every guy is bought in, every guy is just trying to win.”

— Steve Kerr on #HeatCulture

"You don't show up on game day and expect to be great. Greatness happens in practice. You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them." (Michael Jordan)

— Steve Kerr

[NBA @NBA]

“There’s no failure in sports. There’s good days, bad days, some days you are able to be successful, some days you are not, some days it is your turn, some days it’s not. That’s what sports is about. You don’t always win.”

Giannis comments on “failure”

[Patrick Au @coachau]

“That's something that Phil Jackson and Tex Winter imparted to us -- it's a concept called the beginner's mindset. You have to always have the beginner's mindset no matter how successful you become or how high you climb in the game." https://t.co/y1Rlsq4tvd

[Patrick Au @coachau]

“I think that's what bonded us and I think that a lot of these young players today need to subjugate their egos and if they want to be like Kobe -- maybe you can't mimic his work ethic, but you can subjugate ur ego and be eager to learn like he was.”
