Hey everybody, hope y’all are having a great weekend. Just wanted to give y’all a shout and say what’s up. I just got home from the first day of training camp.Both practices went pretty well- everybody played hard and showed glimpses of what they can do. I really like this year’s team. A lot of these guys have played together for a few years now and everyone is comfortable with each other’s games. Just a few quick thoughts-
*My goal for training camp- earn some minutes! I don’t care if I start or anything like that. It’s stupid to get caught up in that. The only thing I can control is how hard I play and hopefully that will earn me a spot in the rotation.
*Although Tony Battie is going to be out for a while with a shoulder injury, we should be ok because Turk, Trevor, and Rashard are so versatile. All those guys can play three positions and give us a different look on the floor.
*Dwight’s a beast. Ok, everyone already knew that.
*Coach Van Gundy has a policy that all players must wear knee pads during practice. Today was my first day in the pads and I didn’t find them very comfortable but they should cut down on knee and thigh bruises.
I’m going to be mad busy over the next week but I’ll try to give y’all updates when I can. Other than training camp the only thing that happened this week was that my yellow golf cart came in. It’s ridiculous. I’ll try and post a picture on here before I paint it. Have a great weekend and we’ll talk soon. Be well, my friends. I’m off to dinner to fill up on carbs.
