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

What this quote means to me is that people are who they are because they choose to be that person. For example,people are in a sport they just think about winning but this is all about who you are not about winning it's about how you choose the right and no the wrong. This quote also means that who you are as a person makes you yourself not nobody else. This also means that if you are a person who likes to win you are wrong because it is not about winning it is about who you are and your actions upon what you think is right for you and your teammates. Choose the right because the way you think of winning is the way you are supposed to think what is right and what is wrong. John Wooden is right because the person you are is the person far more important than what you are as a basketball player or anything else in the world chose yourself not anyone else because who you are is what you will be in life unless you change yourself.
