I don't know what the future holds, but I do know that I'm going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate.
Basketball is like war in that offensive weapons are developed first, and it always takes a while for the defense to catch up.
I’ve always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come.
The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.
Basketball doesn't build character. It reveals it.
Champions keep playing until they get it right.
Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best.
Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.
It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
I've never been afraid to fail.
I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.
Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
You can't get much done in life if you only work on the days when you feel good.
Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I've been successful.
I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'
The game has its ups and downs, but you can never lose focus of your individual goals and you can't let yourself be beat because of lack of effort.
