''What you are as a person is far more important then what you are as a basketball player''                                                                                                                                                                    - John Wooden                                                                                                                                    What this means to me is that doesnt matter about what kind of person you are on the inside, what matters is what you are on the inside.  To be honest i really dont know about this one because either way when youre pklaying basketball the only thing that changes is your clothes. So nothing really does change, maybe the way you think? To play the game right, good sportsmanship. Not about going out and start cussing at people or the referee, its about how much of a decent,normal, person you are.
