PREPARATION = SUCCESS

"Every player competes at a certain level, but there are special players who really are able to intuitively understand situations that help win games, whether it's a steal, an offense board at the appropriate time, having the fortitude to shoot the 3 when maybe it's not exactly called for.  Those types of things, great basketball players understand.  Manu's one of those guys who's been in a lot of situations.  He knows what wins -- it’s outworking your opponent."

- Gregg Popovich, NBA coach of the San Antonio Spurs talking about his player Manu Ginobili, Gold medal Olympian and NBA champion.
