There's only a couple stats that matter. No one cares how many blocked shots a guy has, how many hits.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you play guard, you're not going to block a lot of shots. Inside, you're going to block shots.
The idea is not to block every shot. The idea is to make your opponent believe that you might block every shot.
In baseball, my theory is to strive for consistency, not to worry about the numbers. If you dwell on statistics you get shortsighted, if you aim for consistency, the numbers will be there at the end.
Baseball is not a lot of statistics to me. It's blood and tears.
You would be amazed how many important outs you can get by working the count down to where the hitter is sure you're going to throw to his weakness, and then throw to his power instead.
Awards mean a lot, but they don't say it all. The people in baseball mean more to me than statistics.
You know, I think I'm the worst player to talk to about statistics.
I'm a guy that can play three downs. You don't have to take me off the field. I value blocking.
You can't really measure your game. You can shoot seven under and lose and you can shoot even and win.
I never keep a scorecard or the batting averages. I hate statistics. What I got to know, I keep in my head.
