Winning Starts with a Compelling Vision

Every moment, even when the splitting headaches come, I think of winning. On the bed, before the computer, before and after I discovered I had chicken pox.

  • I think of RI beating Jurong and going crazy when the whistle goes.
  • I dream of the frozen faces of the Jurong players and fierce determination of the RI boys.
  • I dream of the opponents missing layups and giving up offensive rebounds.
  • I dream of them committing defensive fouls as we let loose and attack.

(heck I even think of beating them by 54 and knocking them out)

Doesn't matter whether I can be there or not, I can see that reality in my eyes.

Jonathan will do well, in training and even in matches. There are many blind spots that he has helped me correct. Every training session is a result of discussion between us. To coach the team all the way and hand it over to JW for last 2 sessions will help more than it impedes.

Take for example the jump stop instruction - I would never have thought about that.

So pick yourselvs up and go - stop emo-ing and prove yourselves worthy of wearing that jersey. For all your skills and ability, you have proven nothing yet.

Every batch has gone through severe setbacks and prevailed. You have gone through setbacks. But I've not seen you prevail. Wake up and prove yourselves!

Everybody thinks you will lose - are you guys in such a pathetic state that you think the same?
