Former Tarheel Jerry Stackhouse Details His Playing (and Fighting) Days in the NBA (Cooking Salad With Christian Laettner & More)

Former North Carolina Tarheel Jerry Stackhouse was never the type of player afraid to "put his hands on you".  In an interview with Dan Le Batard and Bomani Jones on ESPN's "Dan Le Batard Is Highly Questionable" recently, the 18-year NBA veteran Stackhouse detailed the stories behind a few of his many fights as a pro. Some took place off the court, some on. 

 Highlights:

• Stack remembering a postgame showdown in an arena tunnel with Kirk Snyder and then a year later, Snyder thanking Stackhouse for the beating.

• Stackhouse giving Christian Laettner a black eye and then, "the next day we were right back together ... frying shrimp and cooking salad."

• "In any of these situations, I don't think I started any of 'em, man."

• An alternate reality in which Tyler Hansbrough told Jerry Stackhouse to get in the weight room and Jerry Stackhouse ended Tyler Hansbrough's life.



Well, it's really just Stackhouse being Stackhouse.  Especially love the story of Stack giving Laettner a black eye. Very entertaining. Gotta love the Stackhouse..
