The Franchise
During an interview with Collin Cowheard, ex NBA player Stephen Jackson stated that some NBA players today do not have love for the game and is spoilled. Is this an accurate statement, or is Stephon Jackson reaching, what say you SportsHoopla?
** Here is the quote from Jackson:
"I love the fact that players have control of where they want to play," Jackson said before Golden State’s 125-123 win over Sacramento on Thursday night at Oracle Arena. "But at the same time, guys got to be professional, too. I would be the first to say these guys these days, they're spoiled. A lot of them are spoiled.
"And I was talking to a Hall of Fame football coach and he said one thing he sees about basketball from the outside looking in, more players today are interested in what the game can do for them. They don't actually love the game like we did. I'm 41 years old, and I still play the game every day."
