I want to see if the player communicates with his teammates and how he responds to coaching. Another thing to remember is players' bodies can develop better than their skills.

I'm used to being coached. Something I learned long ago is that a coach is trying to make you better and to be the best version of yourself.

I think the most important thing about coaching is that you have to have a sense of confidence about what you're doing.

If you're a coach, you've got to have a lot of confidence in what you're doing. Your egos are so large that you know it all anyway if you're a coach.

I think I'm pretty coachable. I do what coaches ask of me.

I'm a player, the coaches coach.

I go out there with whatever the coaches call, and whatever they do, I just go out there, and I'm the player. Coaches coach, and players play.

I like to be able to control which players I'm working with. Because it doesn't matter how good a coach you are if the guys you're working with think they already know it all. You need a response, you need to feel they're trying. I want players who are always striving to improve.

So I don't really believe that how many years you've had in the league determines how well your players play... Coaching is coaching.

Coaches give you too much information. I've been allowed to develop that intuitive ability in my career and lifetime.
