Sonny Weems ripped down the rim during workouts!

That was a great pass by Chandler, btw.

Chandler's reaction, covering his face with his arm, is classic. And who is the white guy that Weems spins like a top as the play starts?

I'm pretty sure that's Booker.

Guess it is. Maybe I should have said "mostly white."

Suns talk about day 1 of camp:

Teletovic was out today with flu-like symptoms.

I think Chandler is going to be worth his weight in gold for this team. He's holding these guys accountable and he's getting them to be verbally active.

Phoenix Suns' new center Tyson Chandler takes the lead

“Today was awesome,” Tucker said after the Suns' first practice session. “It was the first great practice we’ve had in a long time, especially with me and Tyson together. It’s just loud and talking and we’re getting everybody else into it.”

“I guess he’s like E.F. Hutton,” Suns coach Jeff Hornacek said. “When he talks, people listen. He’s got that experience. He’s got the pedigree of the championships. When he says something, guys are tuned in, going, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah.’ Him and his constantly talking out there defensively is going to be big this year.”

Chandler was the last player to leave the Rolle Activity Center court here Tuesday, staying on the floor for extra shooting and then walking around the court talking strategy with Hornacek as they diagrammed ideas to each other with their hands.

As he learns more about his team and its system, Chandler will be empowered to push teammates just as much as he encourages them.

“We need to understand that when we don’t accomplish something, it’s all of us,” Chandler said. “We’ve all got to get better. It’s not just the one guy.”

Where are the quotes/videos of Chandler talking about extending his range and working on his corner 3?

I assume coaching is in Chandler's future.

Those two little clips show just how amazing Booker's stroke is. It is much quicker than Knights, he doesn't take ball down as low, there is more of a smooth follow through and less of s wrist snap.

And Knight doesn't have a bad shot.

Yeah, it's very impressive. My son is in his 2nd year of travel baseball (which is year round so they're training/practicing right now.) I've learned how hard it is to build a swing from scratch. He's 9 and already has a few bad habits that is taking forever to correct (dropping his hands, lunging a bit on his step, not following through completely, not pivoting his back foot.) You have to have infinite patience and the kid has to have amazing work ethic to get it to this level.
