Coach K on accountability and holding everyone, including your star players, to the standard.
"It's called accountability. Holding a player accountable to play up to their individual potential."
You can't hold someone to a standard you and they haven't defined.
You don’t hold players accountable to you. You hold them accountable to the version of themselves they said they want to become.
Step 1: Define who they want to become.
Step 2: Create a shared agreement on the standard.
Step 3: Then coach them to it, every day (not just when it's easy).

True definition of selfless… No agendas.. Just pure authentic relationships with his players.. I see why Houston is always a good team. That type of player/coach relationship is priceless.

I hate when I see teams that have young players that can be really good and impactful, and their leaders are selfish… this guy was surrounded by great leadership and it shows…
"It's called accountability.
Holding a player accountable to play up to their individual potential.
When you do that...it permeates through the entire team."
Your greatest ability is accountability.
Because, your accountability determines how far your potential can take you.
Schools spending all this money on NIL for first round exits. But only three ingredients needed for success. 1) evaluate talent! 2) best fit/knowing your role . 3) Players that BUY IN!!
Ok bam scored 83.. but how he got the 83 was WACK!!! Kobe would never!!!! The NBA needs to understand the younger generation is watching this. And intentionally fouling while you’re up 20 so your teammate can drop 83 isn’t winning culture.
