Yes, but it is not unlike other full time jobs, the fun is not there. After all we usually get involved in this for fun. And it is not so much the lack of fun, but all the types of scrutiny they have to go through as well. And it is certainly not just an "income" issue if you are at their stage. They are going to get a great pension from the NBA as well as a great salary from their college games.
