NBA players have it rough! Outside of having to worry about games, practices, and Xs and Os, they also have to worry about handing out tickets to their families and friends before games. And, according to Jalen Rose, it goes one step further than that. They also have to worry about where to seat their wives as opposed to where they seat their girlfriends. See? Rough! So the next time you get on a guy for playing poorly, cut him some slack. It's not easy to separate your wife from your girlfriend (or your "roadkill" as Rose refers to the side pieces here) and focus on playing well, you know?
