A lion never roars after a kill.
That's a dream of mine, to be able to coach at the NBA level.
The leadership aspect of U.S.A. basketball has really helped me out a lot.
What is there about basketball that makes Larry Bird or Lenny Wilkens want to coach after their playing careers are done?
My role is to make sure we're moving in the right direction, getting points, rebounds, steals, assists and providing leadership.
Jamal Crawford reminds me the most of myself, the way he goes to the basket. But they need leadership.
I want to be like Johnny Bach or Pete Carril or Tex.
Leading the SMU men's basketball program is an honor and a responsibility that I take very seriously.
I didn't want to end my coaching career as an assistant in the NBA.
For me to stay in basketball, it would just have to be a veteran team.
I have seen every aspect of basketball that you can see as a player, and I think they can relate to that, and I can understand them.
As I have conveyed before, ultimately I would like to lead a team's basketball operation and be a part of a successful franchise.
