Basketball: Words

Hat tip: Greg Berge

Words matter. Help players make memories. 

Messages can endure forever. Praise, encouragement, gratitude, and sometimes correction change lives. 

I only told one player "you're the best player I've ever coached," but I've told many "I believe in you." 

I remember hearing "you're going to start because you earned it," before the beginning of my senior season.
