I think everybody needs to think about making plays for the team, making winning plays, before thinking about how many points we're going to score and stuff like that.
I'd say I am a fly half. As regards being 12 for England, I've not tried to play any different. I guess I've been like another 10. Obviously, you do some things differently, and you might not have your hands on the ball as much - but you're still in the game and constantly communicating.
I enjoy making plays for my teammates.
I know the importance of the number 10. In Brazil, the one who wears 10 constructs the attacks.
A point guard can carry a team - if he has all the right stuff.
Some coaches and quarterbacks over-analyze things at times. Sometimes it can be pitch and catch, let the play-makers make plays.
James Harden is one of the best offensive players in the game.
It's my favorite part of the preparation. When we get a pressure figured out and pick it up, those are the plays that fire me up the most.
I'm never going to be seen as an attacking midfielder who's going to dribble past anyone, create untold chances, and score lots of goals, but going forward is something I've always enjoyed doing.
Donovan McNabb has great, fast feet and has learned to lock them in to run the Eagles' offense effectively.
At the end of the day, a point guard's got to do his job.
In pick-and-roll situations, I feel like the NBA is all pick-and-rolls, so I want to be able to handle the ball in pick-and-rolls and make the right read, make the right passes, and make plays for my teammates.
I think Messi is an absolute giant in the game. Not so much because of his dribbles and actions. That's why most people rate him. But I think, differently from others, that he is phenomenal in his teamplay and combination play.
Rondo is great with the steals, also on offense with the passing and court vision.
It takes courage to pull the ball down and reverse field and do some of the crazy things that Favre and Manziel do. There's going to be consequences when sometimes it doesn't work out. But it takes a tremendous amount of guts and courage to go make a play when there's nothing there instead of throwing the ball away.
Really I can do everything on the court: pass, shoot, dribble, score.
I can do a lot more by shooting from outside, score inside, penetrate, and make opportunities for others.
First, I'm just trying to set screens for my teammates and then just be aggressive, make the right play.
The best player I ever played with is probably Cesc Fabregas. I only got to play with him for a year before he went back to Barcelona, but I learned so much from him - the way he knew what he was going to do with the ball before he got it and his passing - and he scored goals.
I think there are a lot of ways to play the PG position. Scoring first is a way that works for them and their teams. I personally like to watch PGs that like to work for others.
If it's a shot for me, if I can make a play, create for someone else, I'll do that. A lot of times you run a play, everybody's watching, everybody's locked in, everybody's pulling over, and it just makes the game tougher for me.
I want to be one of those players like Jason Kidd, who is always in tune with the game and sees several plays ahead.
I'm known for setting good screens.
Just watching Steve Nash growing up, and what he did with Amare - you can't play with a better point guard than him.
Names that come to mind that I've learned from are Tom Brady - the way he gets the ball out and is so decisive. You can tell he is in total control out there. Another name is Aaron Rodgers, and how he's in total command. And also, Cam Newton, the way he has fun. I love that part of it.
