    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    -- Aristotle

    Coach Miles forgot this lesson.

    Remember that time Shaq said his game is like the pythagorean theorem? He said there was no answer.

    I guess he forgot that the p theorem is equal to c squared.
