Larry Bird stated “One thing I told my guys from the very first day of practice was if you have an open shot, you better take it, ‘cause if you don’t, you’re coming out of the game.” Larry Bird had a lot of confidence in every player on the roster in shooting, which was different because usually there would be people that were on a team just do one thing on the court and would “punish” the players if they did not shoot and have confidence by taking them out.
