    I'm guessing it is about playing some PF, like Nate mentioned yesterday.

    Wow, that was a misleading heading if there ever was one.

    Why "after" the shootaround, though? I would think stuff like that would be discussed/incorporated before they practiced.

    read the rest of the article, lots of guys all season have been having one-on-ones with Nate. He probably told him something to the effect of, "You're a sixth year guy, start playing like one." (I hope).

    If that's the case, Travis had a crappy practice? :dunno:

    On third thought, what's the difference between a practice and a shootaround?

    More to do with his shitty play than his address I think

    Praise can be just as easily delivered after a practice as anything else. A "You did good today" can happen just as easily as a "Is there a problem?".

    I think this was a motivation speech and encouragement by the coach. Perhaps Outlaw is feeling pressure on himself on scoring and his shots aren't falling through. This is how I interpreted the article.

    I expect Travis to have a good game tonight. He's due and this talk probably will light a fire in him.. somewhere.

    haha.. I just got a mental image of him doing that while fishing. That'd be pretty funny.
