NBA players only have pride on certain nights ...

... and it's very tricky to guess which nights they are going to have that pride. Very tricky, indeed.

Thats exactly right. They all have lives too. They have shit that distracts them from their job just as we do.

Yeah, but if you get distracted too many times in the real world, you find yourself looking for a new job. And even if you get distracted, you still usually put forth effort (although I wouldn't presume to speak on the way you handle your business ...)
