I suppose that is meaningful to some, but sayings like that always make me laugh. Why not break it down into 16 two minute sections. Why not break it down into 32 one minute sections. Or maybe, just concentrate for one big 32 minute section.
Yeah, I know.. I'm being sarcastic and the point is to maintain focus, but some of these "ref sayings" are pretty inane when you really think about them.

Then you don't you just say you're going to focus for the entire season...or for anything you do in your entire life?
Reason is the human brain is easily overwhelmed by huge problems. Break it down into managable pieces and we can deal with it. Focussing on 4 minute segments of a basketball game seems managable to me.
