    Nothing too exciting, but this is raw footage of the final 5 minutes of practice... real amateur filming here (sorry), but gives you an idea what's going on.

    Kind of symbolic that McHale was about to start the race and Luis Scola and Kevin Martin took off early. McHale had to call them back (rimshot).

    Thanks for the vid, good to see actual bball again. Impressed with Twill's work ethic and how he ran the sprints hopefully it translates. Was Dragic injured? Noticed he wasn't running.

    Funny how T-Will seems to be consisting all his teammates and doing work. Some people think all he does is hate his teammates.

    Not signed yet therefore he can't work out with the team.

    Still recovering from his offseason surgery.

    No Morris because Morey hasn't signed his draft picks

    Thanks Clutch, after a few practices, it would be interesting if you would post what you see are the differences in this camp versus the last few you attended, ie the coaching, players, accessability etc..

    Great stuff, only here.....wonderful.....

    PPatt: Still healing from ankle surgery to fix bone spurs
    Dragic: Nursing good ol' fashion ankle sprain
    Morris and Parsons: Unable to participate until they have finalized contracts (hopefully this happens VERY soon..(As soon as their signed they'll also be allowed to be put into NBA 2K)

    Glad to see TWill giving everybody high fives. He realizes that with a new coach, he has an opportunity to play. I hope he gets some PT this season.

    T-Will is such a great athlete. He looked like he just jogged and beat everyone by a lot.

    Can't say I'm not impressed with T-Will.

    Lowry is a work horse, and I thought he would have been the fastest person. But T-Will took over.
