    Did Clutch die or something? That's the only explanation I can think of why he's late on his training camp report.

    Day One report was posted at 1:17
    Day Two report was posted at 2:00
    Day Three report was posted at 1:40

    It's now after 4:00, and still no report.

    Oh man, I'm gonna miss Clutch. Even though I never met him, he seemed like a pretty cool guy. :(

    Either that or Clutch decided to skip work and watch the whole practice, in which case we should get an awesome report soon!!:)

    Do they hold training camp on fridays? For whatever reason I was thinking they didn't practice on Fridays...and I can't seem to remember if they did last season or not.

    Just heard on 610 that Mobley sat out of practice because of a bum ankle, same with Taylor and Rice. Maybe there wasn't much to report.

    Well, the preseason starts on Tuesday, so if they don't practice today, that's a grand total of a four day training camp? Doesn't seem like Yao Ming is missing out on much...I guess they'll do most of their work during the preseason...

    A-Train, what the hell is your problem with making light of people dying.

    Maybe Clutch hooked up with a power dancer or something?

    Hey, it's not like Clutch tried to jump over the new arena in his car or something...

    I just hope he didn't let something meaningless like his job get in the way of his invaluable contribution to this board...

    Maybe Clutch is at the late practice. Rice and MT were held out for precaution the other day, so night practice might be the one they are in.
