Quotes by Sergio Scariolo: «What was most important in Scariolo's growth as a man and coach?» Humility, for sure, and work. I only learned it over the years and it helped me a lot.From Giorgio Viberti's interview, news/I-know-manage-the-stars-thanks-to-my-wife-spain-is-a-paradise-for-training-athletes-1.37485946 Scariolo, the coach on the top of the world, speaks: «I know how the stars thanks to my wife", Iltirreno.it, 19 September 2019. «As a coach he won everything, as a man he fulfilled himself. Skilled, good, lucky?» I am a happy person, which is no small thing, and also lucky. But I looked for luck a bit: I was ready when the train passed. The credibility you can have towards your team depends on the quality of the technical-tactical work and vice versa. In the end, if you have credibility with your players, if you lead them to believe in what you do day after day, you can also allow yourself to experiment, to do something a little more difficult, to be more demanding compared to work on the pitch. From Jacopo Gramegna, The man of 2019: interview with Sergio Scariolo , Nbareligion.com, December 28, 2019. work pays. And it is never finished.Quoted in Scariolo gives the charge: «Puntare at most", Bresciaoggi.it, 14 February 2021. Is calm my secret? My players, especially in training, would not agree very much.From an interview with the Giornale di Brescia; quoted in Scariolo: "In the NBA I learned a lot", Sportmagazine.it, 13 October 2021. On sporting thought in Italy he has a sporting culture that is still immature. The reactions to victories and defeats are disproportionate, especially in November when nothing is won. The more emotion and results there is, the less the teams function and have growth prospects.Quoted in Alessandro Maggi, -corriere-bologna-211124/ Sergio Scariolo: unreal expectations on Nico Mannion, Realolimpiamilano.com, 24 November 2021. On Miloš Teodosić He is unique in his ability to see the game before it happens. Sensitivity and timing in anticipating actions. As they say, he sees two steps ahead. Even in defensive readings although he is not a top defender.From an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport; quoted in LBA - Virtus Bologna, Scariolo "Teodosic ? two steps ahead of everyone", Pianetabasket.com, 13 May 2022. If you're a good team from October to June, great, you're great. But winning teams are good when it matters most, when it's time to win. Furthermore, there are thousands of circumstances that can impact your final result. Sometimes you don't win and your team did a great job too. But when you have to do it is when it matters most: at the beginning of the playoffs, in the dying games, when the final verdicts are issued.From an interview with Euroleaguebasketball.net; quoted in Scariolo: in Bologna the team and fans are one, Bolognabasket.org, 25 May 2022. Bologna is a basketball city. Of course the results unleash the enthusiasm of the fans and lead to large crowds. But in Bologna, when the fuse is lit, the city responds. Not many cities can boast their passion and interest in basketball. it is at the same level as football, even when the football team is an established first division team. It's not a normal situation. -advantageous/ "The club was good at taking Hackett and Shengelia on advantageous terms" From an interview with Sky Sport; quoted in Davide Adami, Oasport.it, 9 April 2022. I don't know if I was born to be a coach, certainly to have fun with basketball. It is a game of such great richness and in which the physical, medical, mental, medical and tactical parts come into play. A game of a completeness and precision that compares with the human and more unpredictable part. I still believe it is a good quality of any coach to be curious, to "steal" an idea, a concept, a form of expression, a detail. Throughout a coach's career, making choices is a daily job. Over time you learn to make radical choices not too soon which could be functional to an immediate increase in competitiveness, but which in the long term shorten the number of players who can feel involved and motivated to help the team. What you learn over time is to make choices at the right times and without speeding it up, at the cost of losing a few more games.
