It has been a bit of a bumpy ride in the land of purple and gold. There have been tears, sprains and spasms (more on that to follow), along with dead legs and some atrocious transition defense.
But that’s what training camp is all about—getting into condition and working out a myriad of kinks as players get acclimated to new coach Byron Scott’s way of doing things.
When asked Oct. 15 about some of his observations thus far during preseason, Scott answered, per a Lakers.com post-practice video:
The good is the fact that the guys have the effort, and that they’re trying their best, which I think is great. And their attention span is right there and they want to do all the right things… The bad is the transition part. We have to do a better job as far as locating guys, picking them up, stopping the ball and communicating.
It’s all in a week of preseason basketball.
