This Guy Will Never Amount To Anything Because He Does Not Work Hard

Because Scott May had played for Indiana, the May family had a close relationship with the volatile Bob Knight.  Of course, Knight usually had his own unique way of expressing his fondness for the family.  Sean May vividly recalls standing in front of a summer basketball camp in Bloomington as an eighth-grader.  Knight called him out in front of the camp to make a very important point.

"Kids, I want you to look at this guy," the legendary coach boomed.  His dad was an All-American, but this guy will never be anything.  His dad worked hard in practice every day, but this kid doesn't love the game of basketball.  His dad worked harder in one practice than he has worked in his whole life.  That's why he'll never amount to anything in basketball."
