high percentage play
originally coined by basketball commentators, used to refer to a smart, and conventional move or decision made by a player, usually leading to a good outcome, such as a basket or foul on the opposing side.
when used in everyday speaking, it carries much the same meaning, and is usually used to point out whether or not a decision made was smart and paid off, or stupid and useless.
a: dude…. i still don’t have a date for the prom.
b: just go ask (average girl) out, i bet she’s on the same boat as you.
a: screw her, i’m going to try asking (much more desired girl) to go.
b: buddy, there’s only a week left, it’s not exactly a high percentage play, plus i bet she already has a date.
