Jay Bilas quotes:

Toughness is a skill. I don't think we're all born tough. You learn about toughness through your experience.

Hard work is not punishment. Hard work is the price of admission for the opportunity to reach sustained excellence

The tough player is the one who is difficult to play against and easy to play with
