The B_36 posted:I assume this means they don't often get together as a team to run thru the offense/defense on the practice court, but they're all constantly working out, working on skills, maybe doing some small group work. I can't imagine they literally aren't working on their games thru out the season. There are different types of "practice". Practice proper is very physically intense, you really don't want to do it more than a couple of times a month if possible: the players play roughly 15 games a month, you can't practice on gameday, and you really want to let them recover on off days. You also have less intense shootarounds, which you can do on game days or preferably off days. For each game there is also an hour or two of video prep and also walkthroughs where the coaches tell the players about how they want to handle the opponents. In between all this, there is also plenty of individual and small group workouts (players grouped by position), where they get instruction on their individual games. But the main point is that you don't really need practice: during the offseason, the coaches came up with an offensive and defensive gameplan, and during training camp they hammer the plan into the players' heads, and you only need to reinforce the plan during the season, you don't really need 5 on 5 or 3 on 3 scrimmages much, particularly later in the season. Lots of fans and some players dismiss training camp, but that is literally the last time a team's players will learn how they are going to play, after that the team isn't going to tinker with the plan much and they certainly aren't going to go over the basics again This is why players, like Shaq "Company Time" O'Neal missing training camp or coming in out of shape is such a huge problem. IT missed training camp so he may be feeling like he doesn't know the playbook, but that isn't because of lack of practice during the season.

I think this season where some teams just didn't properly adjust to the new preseason schedule really showed at how unprepared they were once regular games started. But yeah completely missing training camp is huge and is why I think it's so rare for teams to win a title without their core pieces at least having some sort of training camp. A kind of funny story from the Lakers last title era is that Kobe basically didn't practice the last five or six years of his career, he never had the health. But the Lakers found they could still have really productive practices when they could have them because Adam Morrison was famously able to simulate Kobe's role and style on the court better than anyone ever could. And it was an actual problem the team had once Morrison was off the team because practice never simulated games at all with anyone else and they never felt sharp.

Bip Roberts posted:I understand ejecting both players on principal there but unless something was missing from that video that really seems like one sided aggression. Captain Jellico was ejected because it was his second T. Earlier in the game, Afflalo and Bjelica had gotten into it and received a double T. Then with the altercation where Affalol swings and misses, and Bjelica gets him in a headlock, they both received another double T, hence the ejection. I'm not sure it's really possible to technically argue that Bjelica shouldn't have received a T for getting a dude in a headlock, even if he was defending himself? E: With that said, Affalo probably needs to get more than just a technical foul, right?
