Paul George Quotes

I'm a playmaker, and I'm going to score. At the end of the day, my job is to put the ball in the basket.

I wasn't a guy who looked to score first. It was to get your teammates involved, to understand time and clock management and having fun with your teammates.

I don't go out there to score goals, as I am just as happy if I provide an assist for a teammate.

It's always good to score, and if we want to do something as a team, you need your important players to be at their best.

What I pride myself on mostly is making the game easier for my teammates.

If I don't score, I try to give an assist; if I do score, I try to give an assist and score another.

We know that if someone is in a better position than you to score, you have to give him the ball.

My job is to help the team, and so I love retrieving the ball as much as scoring or playing the final pass for a goal.

I always think of myself as a point guard.

Obviously, I try to play the game in the way that I can help the team. I know I play a little bit more defensively now, more in the role as a team player, but I think I'm doing really well in that.

To be good is not enough; you also have to make your team win. And, when you are an attacker, that most often happens through a goal or through an assist.

The point guard is the most important position on the court. They often have to be the best player, not by choice but because that's what the game demands as far as all the thinking you have to do and picking and choosing when to score or pass, things like that.

I just try to do what I do by getting my teammates open and getting better at finishing and making plays when I can.

I don't get a big charge out of being the leading scorer. The object of competing is winning. I just try to do what has to be done for us to win. That might be anything at the time - defense, rebounding, passing. I get great satisfaction out of being a team player.

I believe I am a player that can organise the game well for my team.

I take pride in being a great teammate.

I just need to be a good teammate if I don't get looks.

I like to dribble and give the decisive pass to my teammates.

In football, in any sport, communication is really key. So if you want to be a great teammate, a great team and a great player, then communication is very important.

I know people are going to put the main focus on stopping me, so I need to learn how to make my teammates better by passing and creating opportunities for them.

In the past, I played No. 10 and No. 9 sometimes when I had to help the team. I can play there and help my team-mates and my team; it's not important where I play. It's important to win the game.

Like I always say, man, anytime you got playmakers around you it makes your job easier.

I play the way it's most effective for the team. They used to say I hit the ball too many times.

Benzema is a team player, he is very important for us. He always wants to score with us, but scoring is not everything to him.

I play where the coach puts me and try to help the team.
