10th: TIME. Author Malcolm Gladwell: "I remember once having a conversation with a top executive with the Toronto Raptors. I asked her about the stats revolution in basketball and she just kind of shrugged and said, 'It's interesting, and we look at those things, but you have to understand that for our purposes, it's all [about] character.' The thing that separates players is that some have a work ethic, some don't; some are coachable, some aren't; some party all night, some go to bed early. From her standpoint, it's all those intangibles."
