Saturday Morning Cartoons: Hard work beats talent

by Royce Young on July 23, 2011 at 11:06 am 2 Comments

Happy day people of the internet. Thank you for your support of DT. Quick, everyone talk about how hot it is.

It’s everyone’s favorite time where I post a solid mix because there wasn’t really anything else floating out on the YouTubes worthy of a post. But this Kevin Durant one has a twist: It’s all based around KD’s favorite quote: Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard. I can just picture KD saying that to himself over and over and over again as he puts up jumper after jumper after jumper in the practice gym.

Thanks for working hard, Royce. The Thunder True appreciate it.

I often find myself quoting things my coaches said to me when things get tough in my band or with my music. KD is right. If I continue to work hard, then they will have no choice but to follow. I say things like:
"Amateurs practice until they get it right. Professionals practice until they can't get it wrong."
or
"The Game, aka Rock n Roll is much bigger than ourselves. It was here before us and will be here long after we're gone. If we're lucky, we'll get to be a part of it. And that will echo though out the ages."

I guess I just miss basketball and am longing for our team.
This lockout will end. And when it does...we will still be here.

GO THUNDER!
