A Quote by Goran Dragic

I always try to play hard as possible to help my team - it doesn't matter if it's on defense or offense. I would say when I was young I was playing like that, too.

I try to come in, try to defend, help on defense, play as hard as possible and do whatever my coach and my teammates tell me and try to listen and get better.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

I try to play like I did when I was a young boy playing in my garden. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not so good, but I try to always make sure I give my best to help the team, even if I am not having the best game myself.

Eden Hazard

As coaches we talk about two things: offense and defense. There is a third phase we neglect, which is more important. It's conversion from offense to defense and defense to offense.

Bobby Knight

I've always believed if a young guy has a chance to play, why would you explain where his weakness is? The only reason would be to help the other team, or to help a gambler.

Bob Stoops

I don't ever want it to be a question whether I'm a Pro Bowl-caliber player, I believe I'm the best at what I do, and it's my responsibility to play like I'm capable of playing and help this defense as much as possible.

Derrick Thomas

Whatever I can do to help our team, whether it's defense or offense, I'm going to do it.

Eric Staal

Whether I'm shooting the ball, playing defense, anything I can do to help the team win, that's what I try to do to the best of my abilities.

Trevor Ariza

I'm up here to help the team win every at-bat, offense, defense, baserunning.

Cody Bellinger

I just don't want my offense to carry over to my defense. I want to help the team win and be a team player.

Larry Johnson

There's always going to be a lot of distractions in the NFL - that's just how it is; it's on the biggest stage - but really focusing on what I have to do now to help my team win, help me be at my best physically when I'm out there on the field and mentally, because that will ultimately help my team no matter what role I'm playing.

Nick Foles

You have to play offense and defense without thinking, and react like you know what to do, but if you're thinking of where to be and 1,000 other things you can lose focus. You're trying to play hard, but you're overthinking.

Mike D'Antoni

We need to play tough defense and have a sound offense. But mostly, we have to outrebound the other team.

Ben Howland

There's always room to improve, so I'm going to continue to improve on defense, offense, being consistent and continuing to play hard.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

Because [Russel Westbrook] is so rare and impacts the game in so many different ways, you see the usage and the amount of time he's playing and say, 'is this sustainable?' I look at it the other way. Are we playing the right way, are we playing together as a team, and what are his minutes like? This is not a guy that's playing 42 minutes a night. When he goes out there he's going to play to who he is, and I think he also understands that in order for our team to be the best we can be he's got to incorporate and help everybody grow as players.

Russell Westbrook

If I were a high school coach, I would put my best players on offense. The best athletes on my team, I would give them the ball and score points. I wouldn't play them on defense. I would play them where they can get the ball and score points.
