More quotes by Phil Jackson
Approach the game with no preset agendas and you'll probably come away surprised at your overall efforts.
Phil Jackson
The real value in everything you do is in the details.
Phil Jackson
Basketball is sharing.
Phil Jackson
The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.
Phil Jackson
An acrobatic dunk will make it onto Sports Center. A simple, unspectacular bounce pass in the rhythm of the offense will not. System basketball has been replaced by players who want to be the system.
Phil Jackson
He practiced against Kobe all of last year, so obviously it was sweet revenge for him. We deserved that. We didn't know who he was, we gave him up to Charlotte, we had no idea how good a player he was.
Phil Jackson
Before a vision (dream) can become a reality, it must be owned by every member of the group.
Phil Jackson
I don't believe in curfews, because you can't treat men like they were boys without forfeiting a certain level of trust.
Phil Jackson
Not everyone has a purpose.
Phil Jackson
Good teams become great ones when the members trust each other enough to surrender the Me for the We.
Phil Jackson
When the mind is allowed to relax, inspiration often follows.
Phil Jackson
I will have Derek Fisher wear all 5 of his rings the first time he comes in to talk to Carmelo.
Phil Jackson
Wisdom is always an overmatch for strength.
Phil Jackson
If you give the future all your attention, the present will pass you by.
Phil Jackson
No one plays this or any game perfectly. It's the guy who recovers from his mistakes who wins.
Phil Jackson
I'm a patient person. I think that's one thing that I feel comfortable I can deal with - the downfall and the errors, as long as I see progress and people trying.
Phil Jackson
In basketball - as in life - true joy comes from being fully present in each and every moment, not just when things are going your way. Of course, it's no accident that things are more likely to go your way when you stop worrying about whether you're going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what's happening right this moment.
Phil Jackson
Basketball, unlike football with its prescribed routes, is an improvisational game, similar to jazz. If someone drops a note, someone else must step into the vacuum and drive the beat that sustains the team.
Phil Jackson
My philosophy is that you can't motivate players with speeches, you have motivated players that you draft. That's where they come in and those are the guys that are competitive. You cannot teach competitiveness.
Phil Jackson
I gave it my body and mind, but I have kept my soul.
Phil Jackson
