IZTOK ON KIDD'S DEFENSIVE SYSTEM AND THE ROSTER

The answer is make it clear to Luka that coming out of shape and playing himself into shape during the season is not acceptable.

Well, I'm not much of a one for ultimatums with someone you want to maintain a good relationship with, but maybe that's an option. I guess the question is, or else what?


I mean, the guy played all summer with his national team. He didn't show up in bad shape, just not in peak shape. Along with much of the league. That final conditioning is what training camp is partly for, isn't it? Are we so disgusted with this guy that we can't live with his temporarily having a few extra pounds of body fat? If we are, then we are, I suppose.
