Basketball is like photography, if you don't focus, all you have is the negative
If you cannot win, make the one ahead of you break the record
To be a great champion you must believe you are the best. If you're not, pretend you are

Underdog Quotes

"It's not the dog in the fight, but the fight in the dog." Bear Bryant
"Its not the will to win, everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to win that makes a difference." Also Bear Bryant.
Here's an excerpt from a kipling poem that Phil Jackson used to use
"Now this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky,
And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back;
For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack."

No quote for you but you can show people this:

It's a video clip of the game in the NBA Finals where Jordan was sick as a dog with the flu but showed why he's the best ever. I remember watching this game on tv. Jordan would just walk to the bench and collapse during time outs.
If you still want a quote here's one from the movie Blue Chips:
"Dwayne, you can get through college half-assed. Richard, you can get through LIFE half-assed. But I'll guarantee you boys one thing: sure as hell, I'll guarantee you this: you cannot *win* half-assed!"

Never expect to lose. Even when your the underdog, still prepare the victory speech.

this is mine: "at the end of the day, it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game. it doesn't matter who gets the winning shot, but that you work as a team." =D i made that up on the spot. :) i also just thought of this one: "anyone can pick up a basketball. but it takes a real, true player to actually play the sport right."
haha, i sound like a professional. i might have heard these quotes somewhere, but i doubt it. because i just made it up in my mind. :)
