Description

In this episode, we speculate on NBA players' motivations to play basketball professionally and consider the pursuit of one's passions. What is meant by having a "love for the game"?

And how does the fact that professional basketball is simultaneously an athletic competition and an entertainment business, and brings with it celebrity and scrutiny, impact player motivations?
