Smaller markets teams, when you hit bottom, you hit with a thud.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've played in small markets; I've played in big markets. For me, basketball is inside the arena. It doesn't recognize what market you're in. It's about wins and losses, and that's the way I approach it.
Business is a team sport.
The small-market teams should know I've always been with them.
You just go through highs and lows as an individual payer and as a team.
In the larger companies, you have this tendency to get top-down direction.
Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.
A good, quick, small team can beat a big, slow team any time.
You've got no chance of reaching the top if you're just playing for money.
Everyone hits bottom their own way.
Hitting is the most important part of the game. It is where the big money is, where much of the status is, and the fan interest.
