Coach K gives Duke the message he gave to Kobe Bryant | College Basketball

[@InFocusMIAKr3w]

That shit about mothers never being tired hit me hard. What a great way to put it.

Coach K giving out gems. Kobe not hitting those stand still 3s, leading up to him getting up a thousand shots up a night should be a lesson to these guys. Plus, that bar about moms never getting tired. If those two stories can't motivate guys, there's no hope lol

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

@T0PSECRET What? I was alive to see all that, joe and his mom told kobe not to marry vanessa because she was mexican not because he was young. They wanted kobe to marry someone else. So kobe defied there orders and married her a couple months later.

[@AvecPoesie]

Coach K has that kind of soul that you just know is soooo good and special.

[@batzxxl]

"When you're tired, what do you start thinking about? You." He didn't need to follow that up with "And when you think about 'you', you become selfish," or "Then you're not thinking about the team or our goals." He left that for them to fill in the blanks and it seemed to really register. These are the reasons people talk about how you can learn life lessons through sports. Everything he told his team in this clip, could be easily translated to business or personal relationships. Great motivation and communication.

[@belvederehd7237]

“Be as tough as your mothers” really hit me.

[@creydadj]

Coach K ain’t lying at all. Kobe hit a lot of stand still 3s against Spain the 2008 Olympic final.

[@ljcool17]

Kobe so good he'd wait for the double team to come before hitting a shot.

[@Itsuhsikhworld]

Kobe didn't make his stand still three pointer. So he immediately shot a 1000 of them. Holy Shit!!!

[@codysterling9974]

[@MrWhoareyou1221]

Very effective communication, straight forward and clear. Great coaching. In addition, his story about Kobe translates to "If one of the best players in the world listens to me and imoroved his game then you should to". Very effective leadership technique.

[@aaronmeade1546]

So glad Zion went to duke.. the perfect place to perfect his shot.. he perfects that shot hes unstoppable

[@moneybagshawty7086]

Aaron Meade his shooting is knockdown now teams are not leaving him open out there anymore

[@kelvinstewart7953]

Coach K said, “Be as tough as your mother”…..He understood the value of a mother. That is not to devalue the father (especially since he raised two daughters as a father) but the value of a mother is often under appreciated. He wanted the players to know that if you want to succeed, you have to know what a mother brings to the table that often isn’t recognized and bring that toughness when you play basketball.
