STOCKTON "LOVED TO COMPETE"

In 19 years, John Stockton never once lost a suicide drill in practice. Well there was one day.  But he was sick and he still ran it.   That’s the important thing.  John didn’t need all the attention that comes with making the all-star teams or getting his name into the headlines. He just loved to compete.”

-Jerry Sloan (Stockton’s coach at Utah)

 

LeBRON ON COMMITMENT

“Commitment is a big part of what I am and what I believe.  How committed are you to winning?  How committed are you to being a good friend? To being trustworthy? To being successful? How committed are you to being a good father, a good teammate, a good role model?  There’s that moment every morning when you look in the mirror: Are you committed, or are you not?”

-LeBron James
