I'm used to having the ball, man. So, not really having the ball in my hands... it's just me trying to find different ways to impact the game.
I just try to make the right play, stay aggressive and defensively just do what I do. I make sure I talk to everyone and control the paint.
We cannot and will not ban the creation of violent video games. But, we can prevent the distribution of these disturbing games to children, where their effects can be negative.
Capablanca was among the greatest of chess players, but not because of his endgame. His trick was to keep his openings simple, and then play with such brilliance in the middlegame that the game was decided - even though his ooponent didn't always know it - before they arrived at the ending.
Now I'm fast and under control. I can just play, seeing the game slower now.
When I was at Oklahoma, I always felt like I had to control the game because we didn't have great scorers. So, I had to figure a way to win.
A point guard can carry a team - if he has all the right stuff.
As far as control and stuff is concerned, I never had any more in my life than for that All-Star game in 1934.
Casemiro has to cover the gaps left by everyone. That's balance for me; to make sure the game doesn't go mad.
The highest Art of the Chess player lies in not allowing your Opponent to show you what he can do.
I think I have been able to slow down a little bit and really work on different things... I think I improved on being a leader on the court. Controlling the game, controlling the pace... that is where I have grown.
Arsenal is a team that, even if they score two or three, people believe that at the end of the day, they might lose or draw. They have to learn to seal off games so that the opposition can't come back when they're one or two-nil up.
With Bayern, we want a lot of ball possession and to control the play, so I operate sometimes like the 11th outfield player. Thus I am included a lot into the build-up play and have a lot of touches of the ball.
As far as the fouls go, we are not going to rely on anyone else to make the calls for us.
I've always said to the refs to not be the ones to decide the game. Let the players dictate the outcome.
Goalkeeping is very, very much about confidence and thinking you are the man.
It's sometimes easier to defend a one goal lead than a two goal lead.
I'm a believer that players are good self-directors, and I think one thing that's good about video games is they can direct their own experience.
I know what I can do and I know I can pass the ball. I know I can be a true point guard and I know I can score also.
If I had a great game, and I was hot, usually we were up by 20-30 going into the fourth quarter. That means I don't get to play in the fourth quarter.
A god's relationship to the world, even a world in which he was walking, was about as emotionally connected as that of a computer gamer playing with knowledge of the overall shape of the game and armed with a complete set of cheat codes.
When I go into games as a forward, my job is really clear, and I just have to execute. But as a midfielder, you get to sort of enjoy the game more, and you get to feel the game and dictate the play.
When I have the ball at my feet, I'm in different world.
We try to play football; don't forget it, right. My teams always in my career try to play football. I cannot control the other circumstances.
That's the great thing about being an all-rounder. You can impose yourself on the game with bat and ball.
