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.
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.
I feel that I can make certain shots, tough shots, and that I can play better when things aren't going well.
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.
When you're younger, you might make some shots you're not normally capable of, because you're more fluid, maybe stronger, maybe faster. As you get older, you learn not to take those crazy shots.
You have games when you miss shots and when you make shots. But knowing you're here for a reason and you're an NBA basketballer helps.
I just tried to make things happen, whether it was (my) shots or getting shots for other people.
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.
It's one of my obsessions to come up with ways to reimagine establishing shots in new, non-boring ways. Shots that have energy and excitement.
Sometimes those shots I take won't go in but I'm going to continue to take the same shots.
I had no real photography experience, thankfully. I consciously took a lot of crowd shots. I was influenced by Seattle photographer Charles Peterson, who always seemed to incorporate fans in his live band shots.
If I'm blocking shots or changing shots or even preventing players from taking shots, I'm helping the team and we are likely to win when our defense is playing well.
I'm not a guy that's going to shoot 10 3s a game - I like to get to the basket. But some of those shots I do gotta take. Some of those shots I gotta let fly.
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.
You never make any of the shots you never take. 87% of the ones you do take, you'll miss too. I make 110% of my shots.
It's my job to make shots. But the big shift is that I understand it's actually my job to take these shots.
It's hard for women who make a lot of money and make decisions all day long, then they have to come home and be 'Stupid Sally.' Men need respect, and they need to know that they can lead in the relationship, so even if they don't make the most money they need to be able to call the shots.
