    Do you guys remember our first year with D’antoni, we used to always see clips from practice (I believe end of practice), where you would just see Harden and EG take turns continuously throwing up threes. And still saw it the next year with Tucker. I’m talking a good number of threes, like lengthy shooting drills. A lot of swishes.

    I’m not saying I know that the team, or Harden and EG specifically aren’t doing this, but has the media access been changed so that we don’t see parts like that anymore?

    Seriously just curious, because I do recall seeing a lot of those vids and I can’t recall the last time I saw it.

    Yeah I don’t think the team practices much. It’s more walk thrus and game planning and film sessions

    Are you being sarcastic or serious?
    If serious, weren’t they practicing a lot a couple years ago? Do you recall the vids I’m talking about?

    Was honestly thinking the same thing. I get the impression that the norm is just shootarounds and watching some film. I can't imagine them running through drills unless it's training camp.

    No I know. I didn’t know if saying “I don’t think this team practices much” was sarcastic.
    It’s weird. Considering they emphasize shooting threes so much I would hope they dedicate a good chunk of time just continuously putting up threes. That was definitely the case 17 and 18
