"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
"Id rather go 0/10 than 0/0" - Kobe Bryant
"Memory of a goldfish, Confidence of a killer."
It’s the ability to:
- Miss a shot → not dwell on it
- Turn the ball over → reset mentally
- Get scored on → lock back in defensively
Short memory = better performance
You’ll hear coaches say things like:
“Shooters need amnesia.” OR "Next play! Next play!"
Because if you keep thinking about your last miss, it affects:
- Confidence
- Decision-making
- Aggression
For the rest of the game...
