Bobby Knight Knows Basketball by: Joe Waters - webmaster
This is a great basketball quote by Bobby Knight...thanks Jason.
I think it helps prove that yes, we all love to compete against other players, coaches and teams, but the real challenge is competing against ourselves and the game itself.
You get better at basketball by setting your standards high enough so that you have to work your tail off to get to that level. In the process of working hard and getting better, you are in a constant battle with the game of basketball.
What can you do, what are you willing to do to become the best basketball player YOU can be. That has nothing to do with your opponent...just your desire, effort and dedication to the game of basketball.
NOTE: This same idea applies to coaches. What are you doing to become the most knowledgeable basketball coach you can be? Just like your players, you're also competing against the game of basketball...just in a different manner.
