I like this Bill Paxton guy. Is he new?

He's been around the block for years - had odds jobs being a tornado chaser, mormon leader, and brother Wyatt bully.

How can you not love this stuff. I've heard and read a lot of stuff from a lot of leaders in my day, and this is great substance:

Advice to Shabazz:
"Be willing to do something that another man is not willing to do. Every day, whatever that might be. Just get better at something. You've got to be willing to sacrifice and do something that somebody's not willing to do. That's what I wanted to tell him. When you open your mouth, it's an interview. You've got to understand, people are always watching. Work ethic first, professionalism second and humility third. And I think humility is the first out of all of them.

On avoiding a championship hangover:
"I always talk about hangovers after you have a big game. You've got to keep coming back. You can't get drunk off success. At the end of the day, we've got a lot of hungry guys. Some guys didn't play as much as they wanted to play. They're gonna stay hungry. You just try to motivate and drive guys, and at the end of the day, you want them to have the best chance possible. That's how I can screw it up, not giving every guy opportunity. Now, you can screw it up, if you don't work at the opportunity given. It's a clean slate. If you want to eat, pull up your chair to the table and eat."

Best quote. Speaking of Giffey's NBA chances... "“If he shoots the ball the way he did this year, he can fit in any kind of offense – triangle, square, circle,” Ollie said. Whatever you need. "

In a not-at-all surprise, someone has confused Bill Paxton with Bill Pullman.
