A Quote by Draymond Green

I can throw all the good passes I want, but if they don't make shots, it's not an assist. — © Draymond Green
I can throw all the good passes I want, but if they don't make shots, it's not an assist.
Basketball players want to be comfortable, they want to be lackadaisical, they want to make the right passes and take the right shots.
When you hear my lyrics, you hear the shots that I throw at people. I throw shots because I always been the underdog. I got rejected so many times, and I say it in my lyrics constantly.
I've got power. I don't throw hard every time. I just throw shots.
I look at like this: Any player I guard, long twos or shots like that, if they make them I still think that's good defense. You can't make those shots at a high percentage the whole game. It's just hard to make long two-pointers, step-backs, fadeaways, off-the-dribble crossovers.
At first you see a lot of people say 'Oh he's good, but he can't shoot' or 'Oh he's good, but can his shot translate to the NBA?' That just made me go into the gym and work that much harder to show and prove that I can shoot outside shots, and I can make shots.
I want to do what I can to make the law make sense to citizens and businesses alike. I want the laws to assist them in worthwhile endeavors, not to stand as bureaucratic obstacles.
Even if it's just two shots, I just want to see the ball go in the hole. That gives me the confidence to know I can make shots when I'm called upon in a playoff type of situation.
I try to do a good job of contesting shots and blocking shots and altering shots, but I've got to do a better job of doing more.
For those aspiring to make a living from travel photography, it's a sad fact that the boring shots are the shots that are going to make you money.
I believe that good defense embodies seven cardinal principle: reduce the number of your opponent's shots; force your opponent into low percentage shots; control everything within 18 feet; eliminate second shots; no easy baskets; point the ball on all long shots; and prevent the ball from going into the pivot man.
That's the key to defending any quarterback: to make them throw before they want to throw.
You want to take shots you practice thousands and thousands of times. You want to take those same shots in games. The easier you can find those shots, the better.
Golf is the crack of sports. If you hit five good shots, you know you can hit six good shots. The next time you hit six good shots, you know you can hit seven.
I'm my biggest critic. I want there to be no flaws when you hear it. When I think that maybe it's ready, I just hop in my car it's gotta have some bump - and go to corner stores, youngsters on the block, play it for anyone. If they get into it, I get a reaction, the song passes the hyphy test. If it's just cool, we throw it away; it's not going on the record. But if it makes you wanna move - seriously - if it makes you react the same way I felt, then it passes.
Making the tough shots and leaning in a certain way and a fadeaway and stuff like that, those are tough shots, but those are shots you have to learn to make in this league.
It's better to throw a theoretically poorer pitch whole-heartedly, than to throw the so-called right pitch with feeling of doubt-doubt that's it's right, or doubt that you can make it behave well at that moment. You've got to feel sure you're doing the right thing-sure that you want to throw the pitch you're going to throw.
