Give me guys with heart and I'll kick your butt or die trying ;)

Amen there.

OK - here's two piano players, one flautist, one harpist,
and one cello player.  They are all males, they are all
6'2" or slightly over and they all have heart.  Start them against HJ or Silsbee - in my opinion, it'll be "die trying."
[/quote]How you gonna have the same heart playing a *harp?*  ::) ::)
[/quote]
All of these guys are [u][b]passionate[/b][/u]about the music they play.  Their hearts abound.  (Dove, that's abound not "rebound." ;D)
[/quote] :D More like a flutter in the heart ;)

I dont know if everyone else thinks this on certain posts, but when Dickie says he wont see Kobe until summer, and that he just got off the phone with Coach K and Williams, I wonder is this guy trying to be funny or does he really think he knows all of these people.

Give me a mentally tough player who don't blame others when the going gets tough. Who don't dwell on mistakes (his or teammates), don't make excuses, and learn from their mistakes. And trust me, teaching this is a process and won't happen overnight.

I know alot of people too that are in high places, professional and college (played with, for, and against), as I am sure that others do too, the difference is people dont go throwing names around on here.
Now when I say I know someone, it may mean that we have met or were friends at one time but are out of contact now and some still in contact with, just as I am sure others on here do.
I would think that if someone knows all of the people that have been listed then they would be working for a professional or very elite college program.  JMT
And what would really make my day is to have some authentically signed memoriabilia from these guys if that wouldnt be much trouble.

IMO talent would be all inclusive, combining athleticism, basketball IQ, court vision, discipline, unselfishness, confidence, work ethic, ability to identify and take advantage of opponents weaknesses, and ability to be a leader on the court.

I agree. The reason I started this topic is bc many have said certain teams have No Talent or this team has more talent than that team. If that's the case, wouldn't the more talented team win more so than not? It raises a question when team A has no talent, yet is winning more than team B who is suposedly 'loaded with talent'. I think 'talent' does include all of these, but some only look at one component that has been listed and make their decision based on that one quality.
