JJ Redick On Being Hated

Here’s video of former Duke great JJ Redick on what it was like to be hated at Duke.

Turns out it was a painful experience for him in a number of ways, not least of all in how his sisters were treated.

He talks her about how he was in therapy at Duke and wanted to quit after his sophomore year and just in general how difficult it was for him to deal with it all.

Naturally Christian Laettner gets brought into the conversation but the difference between Laettner and, well, everyone, is that when Laettner said he never spent a second caring about what anyone else thought he totally meant it.
