Which of these demonstrate toughness?
“I wasn’t worried he was going to elbow me, beat me up physically or dunk on me. I was worried he was going to outwork me, outscrap me, outfight me, outhustle me, and outcompete me. And he did. Ebeling played his butt off on every play. He didn’t run the floor; he sprinted the floor, and he did it on every possession. He didn’t just box out, turn and wait for the ball to come to him; he hit you first - hard - and pursued the ball as if every shot were a missed shot and his life depended upon securing possession of the rebound. He never said a word and never did anything dirty. He was just mentally tough, which led to his physical toughness. Ebeling was committed to playing hard on every play.” - Jay Bilas
Jay Bilas defines toughness in this way. “Toughness isn’t physical. It has nothing to do with size, physical strength or athleticism. It’s an intangible, an attitude, a philosophy.” Looking at the quote that Bilas had above about a player he competed against as well as his definition of toughness, how are you going to help a teammate develop the same toughness?
