...missing Gordon, Morrow, Stiemsma Aminu, and Anderson.

Aminu and Anderson have solid excuses.

Jrue Holiday has such a smooth offensive game. He's been unconscious shooting deep 3s in voluntary workout scrimmages today

i would totally understand not attending voluntary workouts if like this team was the same as last year or something like that. but when you have an entirely new roster and you need to build chemistry, it's pretty important to be there for a bit to start to get to know these guys.

maybe he has a legit excuse, though.

Withey's mobility and athleticism is underrated!

yep, especially when it seems like the rest of the team is making an effort to be there.


...no Stiemsma either

I wonder what Steimsma's reason is. I know the caoches aren't there, but you think he would be trying to put in the neceassary work to land a starting job.

Dont wanna be the one who to make excuses for Gordon, but...

They've been saying for the entire offseason that the plan was for him to be 100% by training camp. So he's got about a month

Morrow and Stiemsma are really the only guys without an "excuse." I can't really complain about guys missing voluntary workouts though. It is their offseason, and I've never liked the idea of mandatory, "voluntary" workouts anyway.

Props to the guys who are here. No issue with those who aren't.
