Yeah, what i thought it was going to happen is happening already. B-Scott is a coach directly sent from the 80's. well...i wish him and the players luck. I dont dig this outdated methods at all, cause i dont believe in their efficiency

Are you trying to say his coaching method is outdated from the 80's? |

Why I do feel like this is a complete culture change for our team? I mean to be out there running suicides and simple drills has got to be pretty humbling for a lot of these guys. I'm sure many of them haven't had a team practice where they just do fundamentals and defense in a while.
It feels like we're watching the practice montage in one of those great sports movies like Remember the Titans or something LOL.
I gotta say it kinda feels good. I hope the team bonds over this and gels into squad that just outworks teams for Ws |

What part of the practice did you see that was from the 80's? Every team runs suicides. Thats a basic part of basketball conditioning. |

Wonder if Nash Kobe and boozer get to sit out as vets?

On Kobe:

On Nash:

Yeah, so go and watch footage from all the best coaches in the world, Mourinho, Guardiola, Phil Jackson, Popovich and tell me how much running outside of a warmup light run, they put in their training sessions. It's an outdated method of practice for all coaches that are about modern coaching techniques, in most of the sports. |

I would agree for the most part ONLY because these athletes are training their asses off during the off season to come into training camp in shape and ready to play. But nothing helps a team come together than everyone dying after doing some conditioning and laughing about it afterwards. If they are doing their jobs these condition drills aren't a big deal. |

So what's the problem with these sort of drills?

I'm guessing that it takes away from the time that could be better spent developing team chemistry on the court and more specific basketball drills. It's like if an NFL coach brought the players into the weight room to do a strength workout.....stuff that could be done on their own time during the off-season. Not to mention risk of injury especially to the older players. |

| Am I the only one worried Scott's going to overwork them like Brown did in practices....which results in tired players on the court and injuries. |

Conditioning (or over conditioning) does nothing for the presumed 3 starters in Nash Kobe and boozer. But I guess Scott is a Riley disciple.

Exactly. Also, the players dont like to do these kind of grinding drills, so, it usually is not good to the players morale and relationship with the coach. But yeah, basically you are wasting time, pissing off the players and eventually putting unnecessary hurdles on their training, when you should be focusing on offensive and defensive schemes, technique and skill.
All of the basketball drills contain some sort of running and condition exercises in their essence. So, you can improve conditioning by telling the players to do some catch and shoot drills, dribbling drills, post moves drills, one on ones and so on...
I hate to run just for the sake of it, but if you tell me 'you gotta run in order to catch that ball before the other guy does it' i will be more motivated to do it, and i will be running without feeling bummed out. |

I don't think those 3 had to run quite as much. We know for sure he sat down Kobe. Probably did the same for Nash, and likely boozer.
I think B. Scott ran practice like this not only for conditioning but to send a message that he's in charge now and things are changing in lakerland |
