" What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as  basketball player."

- John Wooden

 

 

                    I honestly cannot relate to this quote, although I comprehend the meaning of it. I  can see how one can be so good at one thing but really bad as a person. This quote is also a way for us to comprehend and know how we are truly. As you are or can be a great athlete. But would that really matter more than your personality? No, it wouldn't, because people wont see that you show good sportsmanship. When you show good sportsmanship it counts and is remembered, because one's actions matter more than what they can do on the court. If you do great on the court, but really rude no one would be comfortable around you as a person. So its best to be a good person and a great athlete at the same time.
