“There are plenty of teams in every sport that have great players and never win titles. Most of the time, those players aren't willing to sacrifice for the greater good of the team. The funny thing is, in the end, their unwillingness to sacrifice only makes individual goals more difficult to achieve. One thing I believe to the fullest is that if you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.” IfsThinkingInspirationalBelieveEndsCareGamesWinningIndividualI BelieveSportsDifficultGoalGreaterPlayerOne ThingSacrificeTeamAchieveTalentWillingBasketballTake CarePlentyTitlesNbaTeamworkChampionshipFunny ThingsBasketball PlayerFamous BasketballInspirational BasketballMotivational BasketballBasketball MotivationGreater GoodNba ChampionshipsTeam PlayerGood BasketballNba PlayerAccoladesBasketball TeamworkBasketball WinningWinning BasketballChampionship TeamIndividual Goals Author:Michael Jordan
“The old lessons (work, self-discipline, sacrifice, teamwork, fighting to achieve) aren't being taught by many people other than football coaches these days.

We better teach these lessons or else the country's future population will be made up of a majority of crooks, drug addicts, or people on relief.” PeopleBelieveMadeSelfCountryKidsFightingParentLeadershipLinesTeachAudiencePlayerSacrificeAchieveFootballTaughtCommunicationDisciplineLessonsDrugBasketballMajorityPopulationWideCoachesThese DaysCoachingReliefNbaTeamworkSelf DisciplineAddictCaptivesDrug AddictCrooksFootball Coach Author:Bear Bryant
