Jay Bilas on Trust

As promised, here are some of my favorite Jay Bilas thoughts on "Trust" 

"Most players believe that accountability means blame. It doesn’t. Accountability is being held to the standard you have accepted as what you want, individually and collectively."

"We can't all be great players, but we can all be great teammates. And the key characteristic of a great teammate is belief." 

"You are not tough alone. The best teams have a collective toughness, and that toughness is contagious."

"There is nothing more powerful, motivating and inspiring than having people in your life, especially you teammates and coaches, truly believe in you."


"Belief is a powerful thing, especially when those around you believe in you. Belief is one of the characteristics that leads to toughness. How can you truly be tough unless you believe in yourself? How can you believe in yourself if those around you do not?"

"It is easy to believe in yourself and your team when everything is going well, and wins are piling up. But what about when you and your team face adversity? Adversity is where your belief is tested, and where true toughness is tested."
