afraid camp hurt might muscle muscular nba practice rehab saw seeing shut spring start strength terms wearing works
You could see him wearing down so we shut him down for a while in terms of playing. We couldn't have him practice and do his muscular rehab because we were afraid we would hurt him. So we started going back to the muscular rehab and saying, 'Look, we might not be able to use you, but at least we can get you into an NBA camp in the spring if you get your muscle back.' And we saw it start to come back. He still does that, he still works on all the strength training. He even did it out there and I think we're seeing it come back.

You have to be prepared to have an off-shooting night and still win. We could have hit two or three more threes and everyone would have said we blew them out.
