Message: [QUOTE="miamicuse, post: 5731031, member: 7237"] As far as basketball, I don't get when someone says after a loss they need to reach down to work harder, like 120% or even 150%, implying they already gave 100%. If you are really able to give 150%, that means your 100% was really 66.67%, that means you are a lazy bump. I also don't get when someone praises another player saying "he plays (or shoots, or defends, or rebounds) just as well as anybody else"...that makes no sense to me, "anybody else" to me is any random person, or any average player, so that's just someone who is average nothing special and yet it is often being used to refer to "one of the best" as in "Steph Curry can shoot as well as anybody else" or "Dennis Rodman can rebound as well as anybody else".
