If you put your effort and concentration and to play into your potential to be the best that you can be,

I don't care what the scoreboard says at the end of the game, in my book, we're going to be winners.

The talent for so many players today, the talent and the spotlight, it's taking them to heights that their character's not strong enough to support.

I'm one of those set goals achievements.

I talked about faith, passion, obviously the drive with the guys that I've been around and the guys that surround me every single day. If I want to be one of the best, I've got to play with and against the best. So that which gets praised gets repeated. You're listening to the Hardwood Hustle, brought you by PGC Basketball.

Thanks to our friends over Team Snap for today's communication tip of the episode.

This week, coaches, I'd like to ask you a question.

How often do you rehearse what you're going to communicate?

See, a lot of the great communicators and many of the communicators that I've had a chance to study and to listen to, they are always rehearsing their message prior to giving it.

So they're going to have a big conversation or a big proposal or even a big talk. They will go

through it once or twice in their head and sometimes even out loud they will rehearse it. They want to make

sure the message is going to be communicated crystal clear, and they are on top of everything

they need to communicate. So this week, I like you to go through the practice of rehearsing your

message prior to giving it. Maybe you have a big conversation, maybe you have a talk you need to give

prior to doing it, go through a proper rehearsing process and allow your communication to thrive

because of it. Thanks to our friends over at TeamSnap for today's communication tip of the episode.
