La Bomba Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins ended the first day of his first NBA training camp by challenging his players to a game of "go home or sprint." One player had to dunk while another sank a free throw while a different teammate buried a 3-pointer -- all in sequence -- so the team could board the bus and return to the hotel. If not, the Grizzlies had to run the length of the court. It took a few tries. But guard Marcus Williams finally ended the night session with a long-range basket that led to a roar and wrapped up a day in which there was plenty of trial and error. The Griz have a lot to smooth out. But that was to be expected with a bunch of players coming together for the first time. "Raggedy," Hollins said when asked to sum up the day. "They worked hard but we have a long ways to go. It was raggedy, but with good effort." http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2009/sep/30/griz-ragged-but-energetic-on-first-day-of-camp/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
