That's how easy baseball was for me. I'm not trying to brag or anything, but I had the knowledge before I became a professional baseball player to do all these things and know what each guy would hit.
You can't really teach rebounding. You can teach how to box out, but rebounding, that's something you've got to have in you.
Goaltending, sometimes it's tough because you're in the air and you say, 'No, no. Don't take the ball.'
I was born a footballer. Before I could walk, I was chasing balls.
I saw the rebound and when the puck came to me, I said, oh my God, puck, I must shoot.
You can tell when somebody is chosen basketball-wise. You can tell.
When a coach tells you to shoot the ball, it's like a green light for you. You can't want that more than anything. But the catch is you got to be good enough to know that when you're not open, you gotta pass.
At 16, 17, you have no fear. You don't think or analyze. You just play on automatic. You can get smarter as you get older, but in sports you can be too smart, you know?
Playing point guard is someone's instincts. They're used to that. That's my instincts.
