If you put your effort in 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 of cheap ones.

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 what you're listening to the Hardwood Hustle, brought you by PGC basketball.

Special thanks to our friends over at PGC Basketball. Lead them up, ShotTracker, and TeamSnaf for all their support of the Hardwood Hustle. Normally I'm alongside my co-host, T.J. Roseen, but today I'm joined by really kind of culture coach, all right, consultant, sports consultant, and expert in this field of developing teams and developing the right environment.

J.P. Nervin.

And J.P., today I want to kind of position this talk.

There's a lot of players right now, I am sure, throughout the country that are not enjoying their season.

Okay. It's just not giving them what they had hoped for, right?

And not even wins and losses, okay?

I kind of put that off to the side because those don't always tell the accurate story of what's

happening.

But, you know, if I'm a player right now and I'm just not enjoying my season, it's not as much

fun, my teammates and I aren't

clicking. We're not vibing the way. I don't know. There's just a stink over my team, you know?

A lot of players are in that position this year, not enjoying the process. As a player, what can I do

to change things around? Because I've got three more months, two more months, however many months left of this season,

and I don't want it to continue the speed and the feeling that I have right now.

What can I do?
