    The fact the lads are taking their own initiative to organize their own mini-camp is very encouraging. Imagine last season with Harden joining the team after camp and the results the team got. Now imagine this coming season where not only will the entire team be there for the main camp, they have a pre-camp mini camp too.

    I do not follow the day to day news of many teams, but this is the first time I heard of players taking their own initiatives to train together. The team is off to a very good start.

    Mchale said at the presser that he was going to start working with Dwight on Monday, so I think he might be going there as well.

    Even better. They can start experimenting with sets and plays early. If Sampson is going as well (no conspiracy theories please), the lads can even have some short scrimmages.

    Hopefully, the Rockets can send a camera crew west side to do some recording and give the fans (us) a few teasers....

    Agree. It's looking very good. I'm a great believer in team basketball. I'm very much looking for the beginning of the season. I wan't to see if my gut feelings were right.

    I think he can cover his expenses making 900k a year

    I think Chandler is a very clever investor. It will become very clear when his next contract kicks in.

    would be peculiar to say the least if he is not one of the ten rockets players working out in LA right now...

    Maybe Dwight can send another video on Instagram.

    I am at UCLA, which is in LA!

    Of course with his Rockets teammates there (this time).

    :p

    i think the ultimate troll pic would be dwight's 5man squad all wearing koby fakers home jerseys and the 5man squad of opposing rockets players wearing the koby fakers away jerseys.....that might end up being even bigger than gangnam style on the interwebs

    Most people know that he is in Chicago during off season but the turkish national team will meet July 17 in Istanbul and from what i heard he should be there. If he is not there and don't meet with the guys in LA I will be really disappointed by Omer!
