    Have they called extra practice or film sessions yet?

    Who is/are the team captain(s)?

    Are they really team leaders?

    While the season is young, I think this is disastrous enough of a start for the players to be taking it upon themselves to correct the ship.

    But I haven't heard it happening.

    Yeah it was at show palace. Harden hit a bunch of threes, Dwight went hard to the hole but sadly Ty still couldn't score and left early.

    They're not having one. They're scared Harden might get offended and leave in free agency.

    Yes, but they are waiting for Khloe's schedule to clear up, so she can make it, too.

    Kept the 15th roster spot open for Lamar's comeback.

    To make practices more competitive.

    They should actually have two. One about the coach and the other one about Harden.

    player only meetings are only an ego stroke for the so-called team leaders. it'll be hard for the captain to tell the team to play harder or up their defense when he's been one of the main culprits there.

    if anyone needs a talking to it's harden. it's so obvious he's chasing too hard after curry's numbers and it's getting to him.

    no amount of talking to can help lawson. it was a given he had no defense but fans glossed over that. not the best fit next to harden too and his level/style of play has declined in the last two seasons now.

    This team is built around Harden. So long as he is checked out and more concerned about Khloe and the lifestyle than being the best basketball player and winning, then we are going to lose.

    bingo.

    in general, i never have been a fan of these so-called players-only meetings.
