    Buck Williams looks in great shape. I bet he could still play.

    Man that footage got my heart racing a little bit. The team looks like they got a pep to their step.

    Nate's expression at 9 seconds in is pretty priceless.
    Is that Rudy applauding in the background at 44 seconds in? Isn't he supposed to be too busy sulking?

    Looks like just some 1 on 1 skill work with Bayno, but it's nice to see the big guy out on the floor.

    11 seasons, 6 first-round losses. Maybe just tweak something minor? Like show up bald, and then let the hair grow all season? Reverse the curse!

    Buck at about 1:16 - he looks old!

    The entire team should be required to grow their hair like Andre. That would be AWESOME.

    That'll work too, but Miller can't do anything about that. He can alter a few of his superstitions to try and change his luck!

    The guy averages nearly 17-5-5 in the playoffs while never having been the first option, I wouldn't say those first round exits fall squarely on his shoulders.

    That was a sweet lookin J by Brandon. And I loved that he cut immediately to his spot when he saw Dre getting doubled. I know it's just one play and I take away anything from it, but I am very excited about seeing their camaraderie on the floor this year.

    Yea you would think with the way the press is reporting it so far that Oden isn't even near being able to work out. Far from the truth.

    The other thing I noticed from the video is all the players looked like they were mentally involved, paying attention, and were communicating. There were several parts of the clip where I could tell a player(s) had perked up and was trying to listen to what was going on and understand it. That is a good sign.

    lol, they showed on the news Rudy sitting out most of practice, because of "blurred vision". Then they show video of him squinting while he drains a deep jumper.

    C'mon Rudy, the best you could come up with was blurred vision?

    Buck looks strange without the beard.

    I don't know what I'd give to watch a couple practices...I'd probably be willing to give up paying back my car loan.
