I’m not a guy who is out there looking to get his game going or put up shots; I’m out there to win, and I don’t care if I’m playing three or 30 minutes.
If a guy is shooting a shot in the corner 70 percent of the missed shots usually come off that other side and 30 percent hits off the front rim so just playing the percentages and kind of studying your teammates’ shots throughout the course of the game.
I’m a head-shot photographer. I have people come to my apartment, and I take their head shots.
I’ve always wanted to shoot a good percentage for my team, because I’m the point guard, and I can take fewer shots, still score more, so that I can get my teammates feeling good about themselves. That was always my feeling – that if I shoot a high percentage, I don’t have to shoot a ton.
I got rabies shots for biting the head off a bat but that’s OK – the bat had to get Ozzy shots.

It’s true that no policy fully survives first contact. But if you don’t spend time anticipating the shots you are likely to take, you wind up flailing about wildly.

I don’t want to be someone saying ‘Hey, why don’t you use my boy?’ You can ask Mr. McMahon or anybody. Never once. Cody calls his own shots.

If you’re in the public eye, people are going to take shots at you.
In putting setting to work, I like to think about long shots and close-ups. The long shot is the overall view of the place in which the characters live – the island, the town, the wide sweep of place. Then we narrow in. The close-up, the tight focus, makes the place different from anywhere else.
We’ve been conditioned to understand music as a field where you get discovered, and you’re always trying to find that end. So ‘my shot’ is speaking of a variety of shots. When you’re a rapper, you look at every shot as the one you’re supposed to take.

I’ve copied a bit of what AB de Villiers does. The way I go back and across to open myself up and set myself for the shots.
When I got on tour in 2014, I was hitting a slice off the tee. No joke. Yeah, I had plenty of power, and I knew how to play the curve, but I was a tour player who was watching his tee shots peel 30, 40 yards to the right.
Runs are runs, even if they are coming off playing cut shots or in front, but it’s not like T20 can only be played with big shots.
Most people don’t know I like to block shots. I’m going to be a big point guard out there. So just come in and prove myself. Just show why I belong on this stage.
Every aspect of filmmaking has lured me. Although I’m an actor now, one day, I’d like to direct a film. It’s not as though I’m all set to take the plunge; I cherish this dream of calling the shots, but only after I groom myself with the right kind of preparation and the technical know-how.
Some directors are really strong on action, manhandling you around the set; others are very focused on setting up the camera shots and practically ignore you. You have to get used to introverts, extroverts, directors who clown around for the crew, and the odd one who’s monosyllabic.

Every shot feels like the first shot of the day. If I’m on the range hitting shot after shot, I can hit them just as good as I did when I was 30.

If you move in and out, throw shots and use angles and the guy’s feet are planted, you look a lot better.
