There are certain guys that are obviously a lot more talented than myself and a lot of the other players in the league, but... once you gotta play against me, all that's out the window.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I'm going to miss shots. I'm going to make plenty of mistakes. It's not going to be perfect.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I think I am a good help defender as well as just bringing a lot of communication to the floor.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I feel like I can defend three different positions: point guards, shooting guards, and small forwards who don't want to play too much in the post.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
Everything was always a pretty up and down for me. It's always been an uphill battle as far as getting respect goes.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
If the offensive player starts losing confidence, that gets the defender's confidence up - and I think the team can feel it.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
All the time, I play with a rhythm; if I'm too far out of the rhythm, I feel out of place.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
Usually, if I do a good job in the plus/minus category, I know I've had a good game.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I never said to myself, 'Get to the NBA, be an All-Star, make a $100 million contract.'
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I wanted to go the NBA and win a championship because I've never seen a grown man cry the way Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan cried when they won a championship.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
My job is to pay attention to the feel of the game and always add a positive energy to it on my team through the ups and downs of the game.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I'm a Type A person who doesn't want to get stuck in any one type of workout. I need a variety of things to stay interested, and that way, you make sure you get the most out of yourself.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I think that for my sport, the core is the most important. I mean, really in all sports, but especially in the sport I play, I keep my core right and try and keep that up no matter what I'm doing.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
People sometimes think that if someone plays basketball, they have to do that one thing they're great at. But I like being able to show that you can do more than one thing and do it at a high level.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I'm a culture guy. I sort of know all the familiar ingredients to get something going. Once everyone starts to buy in collectively, then that culture can start being built.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I joke about it a lot, but I be serious as a heart attack when I say it: I don't wish that on nobody, not being able to play.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I just write verses. I don't write all day long. When I have something that needs to be said, I just write it down on my notepad in my iPhone.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
Don't let men fool you... we all want love; we just know that it can leave us very vulnerable, and we seek a woman who understands and protects that with her life.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I've started most of the time I've been in a Knick jersey, so I just think they want me to bring a certain energy every night. They want me to bring that defensive presence because they know I can make something out of nothing on defense, and I think they just want me to bring that defensive presence every day.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I believe all men that are desired by masses of women due to looks, drive, and character are all more than likely to be seeing multiple women (Rightfully so if they are single).
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
My father, my first coach, would never let me punk out if I was capable of helping the team.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
Of course there's going to be times when I'm going to have to step up and knock down corner 3s, but I don't want to settle all the time.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
You may have to change how you guard somebody because of how they play. But the mindset stays the same - making people uncomfortable, making them do what you want them to do instead them dictating on offense.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
When I was growing up, I didn't really have a lot of different things I could wear. As I got older, the more I could look different on an everyday basis, the better.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
In Chicago, growing up there, that's how we played. You play for something more than just yourself. You play to win, and that's all that really matters.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I'm a taco guy, so I like Mexican food, and any form of a taco, I'm going to eat it. During the season, I'll make it a grilled chicken taco. But after the season, give me a regular beef taco and fill it to capacity. I need meat, cheese, sour cream, lettuce, pico de gallo, and everything you got.
Quote by -Iman Shumpert
I was called fool's gold. That's what I was called in the draft combine. That's how I remember it. I took it personal.
