Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you`re ready to play as tough as you`re able to, you`d better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you`re not giving it all you`ve go...
Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It`s being able to take it as well as dish it out. That`s the only way you`re going to get respect from the players.
