Also, they're complaining about 2 hour practices? Do they have another job to get to? I honestly thought most pro practices were at least 2 hours along with some combination of a lifting session, shooting drills, other skill improvement drills, or conditioning.
Hopefully, the front office takes steps to get the right players on the team to correct this noise with the young players, but seeing who's in the front office, I don't have much trust that it'll happen.

I mean I guess. I have seen that roster and I don't know if 4 hour practices will help them get better if the goal of practice is to "shock and awe". Also, is it really a good idea to have guys with the injury histories of Zach Lavine, Kris Dunn, Bobby Portis and Lauri Markkanen grinding in practice during a four games in seven days stretch though?
Not sure why they brought in Thibs Light when they could have just kept the Original Thibs and his players and been a better team.
