Sports Figures,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Sports figures earn their reputations during the playoffs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially in the waning moments of close games. Some star athletes play their best when it matter most. Others crack under the pressure. This distinction separates the legends from the mere all-stars. When asked how they perform so well in tough situations,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], superstar athletes talk about preparation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fearlessness,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and psychological intimidation.
Examples of Immortal Sports Figures
The great sports figures possess tireless work ethics. Even during his prime,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Larry Bird was neither the fastest player in the NBA,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nor the strongest, nor the tallest. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nobody worked harder. Bird always wanted to take clutch shots, and most of the time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he made them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because his endless preparation had built his confidence to the point where he felt he could win in any situation. That's why people call him Larry Legend.
Athletes who play scared in big moments rarely perform well under pressure. Karl Malone,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], someone who put up incredible statistics during the regular seasons, always appeared tight during important playoff games. Even when Utah went to the NBA Finals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Malone never played that well during the post-season. John Stockton hit all the big shots. During the finals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Malone allowed Dennis Rodman to shut him down. The Mailman's inability to make big shots will stay with his reputation forever.
While athletics may be physical contests of skill, the greatest sports figures are strong in the mind as well. Michael Jordan used to taunt his opponents,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], rattling their psyches,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ensuring they could never compete with him again. Jordan possessed tremendous physical talents, but he also defeated his opponents mentally. His tough-mindedness kept him atop the NBA for an entire decade.
