"Nobody's more important than the team."
-Rejean Houle
"A star can win any game; a team can win every game."
-Jack Ramsay
"On a good team there are no superstars. There are great players who
show they are great players by being able to play with others as a
team. They have the ability to be superstars, but if they fit into a
good team, they make sacrifices, they do the things necessary to help
the team win. What the numbers are in the salaries or statistics don't
matter; how they play together does."
-Red Holzman
"Champions separate the important from the unimportant. They know that
good press, playing time, or individual honors aren't as important as
knowing that you and your teammates have responded to the challenge
together."
-Don Shaw
"You can accomplish a lot if you don't worry about who gets the
credit."
-Bill Arnsparger
"Part of life is getting sucked into something with others. What we
try to do with our group is breathe together, share the same space,
find something outside of just playing basketball. This spiritual
stuff brings an act of community to us."
-Phil Jackson
"Set high goals, be positive so others who share your goals will work
together to attain them."
-Jody Conradt
"We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon St. Crispin's Day."
-William Shakespeare
