Chapter 455: Chapter 73 Love Passionately

[Rivers said, "I'll tell you, at the end of the day, the teammates you crave are those who love the game, the ones who can really play..."

Did he mean that there are players who do not love basketball?

Rivers seemed amused by my naivety, as I indeed believed that all professional basketball players loved the game.

Rivers continued, "There are as many types of people in the world as there are types of players in the NBA. Basketball, like any other profession, has some people who do a job just for the generous pay. They work hard, make more money, gain some prestige, even though the job itself may not be that appealing to them."

"Then there are those who do a job because their life has led them to it, they follow in their father's footsteps, or everyone around them does it, and they have no other choice. And there is a fraction of people, a small fraction, who are driven to do a job by something inside them, they love it too much, they can't do anything else but that."
