ARE YOU A 4TH QUARTER PLAYER?

Are your num­bers where you want them to be? Can your coach count on you down the stretch? What does it take to fin­ish strong?

As an NBA play­er I always want­ed to be in the game. Every minute of every game. I hat­ed sit­ting on the bench. But there are 12–15 guys on a team and only so much play­ing time to go around. The coach had to make a deci­sion. I always want­ed to be the play­er the coach could count on and would look to when the game was on the line.
It was great to be a starter, acknowl­edged by the crowd at the begin­ning of the game. But the great­est respect I received was to be count­ed on at the end of the game, when we need­ed the big score or the big defen­sive stop. Being a part of the five guys on the floor meant every­thing to me. Gut check time, three points down one minute to go!
PREPARING FOR OPPORTUNITY
Prepar­ing myself for that oppor­tu­ni­ty took years of hard work, prepa­ra­tion and good coach­ing. The result­ing con­fi­dence, how­ev­er, was incredible.I knew I could per­form when asked.
Are you that per­son? The one who is ready and able to per­form when the goal is on the line? The go to play­er? Assess your tal­ents and skills. What else could you do to help your team fin­ish the year and hit your numbers?
Action Step
It might be time to hud­dle with your coach or your team and deter­mine the best strat­e­gy for the last few weeks of the sea­son. Share your ideas, cre­ate a plan and get out there on the court! Your team is count­ing on you!
