Shane Battier shares a must-listen on what it really means to be a champion, how to be a great teammate, and how to make an impact.
"The sign says, 'Champions are made when no one is looking.' I sorta laugh at that sign because there is no better sign to sum up my career than that. I lived that literally."
Here's why:
"My last few years in the NBA, I was first or last, depending on how you look at it - in a stat called time per possession...I was the NBA's version of hot potato."
Then he did the math:
"I found out that 98% of the time I was on the court, I didn't touch the ball. Only 2% of the time I actually physically touched it."
"Most people watch the player with the ball or guarding the ball. So literally, when I say 'champions are made when no one's watching' - no one is watching me for 98% of the time."
"But yet I was an integral part of my team. I was an integral piece in my coach's sweat when I didn't play."
How did he do it?
"I always looked at ways to impact the game. Boxing out. Taking charges. Sexy plays like running back on defense. All of these made up my 98% of time spent away from the ball."
98% invisible, but 100% essential.
You don't have to score to make an impact on the game.
The best teammates own their role. They are willing to put the team first over individual glory.

WHAT IF YOU:
👊 trained at a championship standard?
👊 eliminated all your excuses?
👊 got in the best shape of your life?
👊 competed on every drill and play?
👊 held everyone accountable?
👊 forced your opponents to beat you?
WHAT COULD YOU AND YOUR TEAM ACHIEVE?
Athletes: Confidence isn’t a feeling. It’s not a mood. It’s not something you wake up with or lose overnight. It’s not a pep talk. It’s not your coach, parents or teammates telling you, “you got this.”
Confidence is evidence-based.
It comes from proof. It’s the accumulated record of what you’ve done. It comes from knowing you can because you’ve already done it in practice & in games.
More coaching doesn’t mean more learning
The more coaches say, sometimes the better we feel … but feel isn’t always real
Ex: kid misses FT
A teammate tells him “don’t think about it”
An assistant coach says “hold your follow thru”
Another coach says “bend your knees”
A family member says “take your time”
This happens often the player at the FT line getting several instructions is what coaches do… coaches coach 14 things with their team & teams get good at 0 things
Sometimes, less is more. Coach less & see more returns or Coach more of fewer things
Become more like a MASTER TEACHER
