Q&A with Jerry Stackhouse, Part II
Posted Apr 7, 2014
Jerry Stackhouse: "All these guys that are talking about being ready to come into the league, they better re-think this thing. When you come into the NBA, it’s real. You’re talking about guys’ jobs, their livelihood, and they take it very seriously. The NBA is not the camaraderie or the fun that college basketball is. Guys want your job and they’ll do anything they can to take it."
