    This scheduling is interesting. Team flying out today, full free day in ORL tomorrow, Friday night and I'm guessing SAT night after the game in MIA, then up to Indy on Sunday. Gonna be like five nights in Florida for two games.

    Not anymore. Pretty sure after last night there will not be a trap game on this road trip.

    So does this make my 40-42 prediction look good or not?

    That prediction looks terrible. Especially if it turns out to be correct.

    Layman has been a disappointment so far. I wonder what his leash is. I’m guessing Meyers will play more if it continues, but if he busts as well, an opportunity could open up for Trent as the season goes on.

    @HCP what is the inside scoop on going down a day early? Is it just to enjoy the road trip a little more or was it a strategic move?

    This is not the norm, but we did do this 2 years ago on the first road trip out east after the all star break as well. I've heard nothing on why. First road trip of the season, maybe Coach wants to get their heads straight. I can tell you that teams in the past really bond on these road trips. Gotta come together. Maybe an extra day on the road will help with that.

    I always love the stories about what players do with their days off on the road. Hopefully they all go do something together.

    The guys will go out to eat together a lot. Seeing movies is a big thing wherever we stop. Every now and then we will go to another NBA game or NFL game like we did on an off day in LA 2 seasons ago. Rams vs Falcons followed by Knicks at Lakers.
    But you'd be surprised , a lot of the guys just chill or go to the gym at our hotels.

    That actually doesn't surprise me with the current roster.

    More importantly, aren't you curious about what kicks I packed for this trip?
