Although you wouldn't always recognize it in today's game, the role of coaching in basketball is all too important. There is more to playing this great game than just playing.
"A player is supposed to perform to the best of his ability. It's the coach's job to see that this gets done."
-- Alexander 'Alex' Hannum
"To be a coach is to be a teacher. You have to teach people from different backgrounds to work together for the common ground."
-- Nat Holman
"You must be sure that you give back something that's beneficial to the game. Any of the teaching you do must be for the benefit of the men who play."
-- Hank Iba
"The problem with most leaders today is they don't stand for anything. Leadership implies movement toward something, and convictions provide that direction. If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything."
