Travis On A Plane Outa Town? (speculation)

[ABM]

Hmmmmm..............

From Quick:

Throughout the season, McMillan has had several sit downs with players to either clear the air or establish a point. There was a meeting with Sergio Rodriguez early in the season when Rodriguez complained about playing time. There have been several sit downs with Greg Oden in an effort to get the big man to relax. And there have been film sessions with LaMarcus Aldridge to go over post play.

The latest chapter of the McMillan sitdown evolved on Wednesday when the coach pulled Travis Outlaw into his office after shootaround. Don't know what the topic of the discussion was, but will try to find out in pregame tonight......

I'm guessing it is about playing some PF, like Nate mentioned yesterday.

Wow, that was a misleading heading if there ever was one.

Why "after" the shootaround, though? I would think stuff like that would be discussed/incorporated before they practiced.

read the rest of the article, lots of guys all season have been having one-on-ones with Nate. He probably told him something to the effect of, "You're a sixth year guy, start playing like one." (I hope).

If that's the case, Travis had a crappy practice?

On third thought, what's the difference between a practice and a shootaround?

More to do with his shitty play than his address I think

can a mod please edit the title of this thread

Praise can be just as easily delivered after a practice as anything else. A "You did good today" can happen just as easily as a "Is there a problem?".

Um I agree.

I think this was a motivation speech and encouragement by the coach. Perhaps Outlaw is feeling pressure on himself on scoring and his shots aren't falling through. This is how I interpreted the article.

I expect Travis to have a good game tonight. He's due and this talk probably will light a fire in him.. somewhere.

Why do I STILL have visions of him dreaming about catfish fishing near Starkville while doing his little shake 'n bake, fallaway maneuver?!

haha.. I just got a mental image of him doing that while fishing. That'd be pretty funny.
