What is the right basketball attitude?

Practice hard, play hard in the game, and show good sportsmanship. You practice hard because it is more important to have the respect of your teammates than it is to have the respect of your opponents. You play hard in the game because people have taken time out of their day to watch you play, and play with you, and they are deserving of the best you have to give. You show good sportsmanship because it is more important to be a good person than it is to be a good basketball player.
