    Hmm, in watching the interview, I did not take it that the reference was intended toward what he was not being allowed to do in game. Face it, there is very little accountability of the top tier players on this team. I took it to mean that he make the normal "sacrifices" any athlete makes to get better, work on his game, eat right, stay in game shape etc etc etc.

    Those aren't sacrifices, those are earning your paycheck.

    See I thought he was talking about the sacrifices of what it takes to be an elite NBA player in terms of improving your game over the summer. The work that goes into being a good NBA player is a sacrifice. I think you're reading too much into that word.

    Olshey: No one had any plane flights schedule so no one expected this to happen.

    Yeah, well , you would think so, but how many ten year plus "pros" do not do so? I could probably name a hand full without giving much thought..just take felton for example, of Miller..guys often come into the season out of shape, and use the first half to get into playing shape..not uncommon, bro.

    You know, I truly believe that these guys worked so hard to get the third seed, that they expected to mail it in for wins. They played some of the worst ball this season, after clinching the spot.
