With just over two weeks to wait for the prelude to the "Saga in Secaucus," CelticsstffLive presents Eric Weiss of Draft Express, the preeminent draft web site for fans and NBA teams as well.
Not confined to his globe hopping scouting voyages, Eric has spent much of this past season with Celtics credentials covering the team on a nightly basis.
Is there anyone with more knowledge of both the potential draft choices and the needs and temperament of the team? I think not!
Eric has also been sharing some interviews with Celtic players and contributing articles on Celticblog.
His most recent: "Offseason Plans" replete with embedded audio file interviews (which has become Eric's trademark), examines the offseason training plans for the current roster players.
"Gomes...explained he’ll be spear-heading a team movement out to Vegas in order to workout at "Impactbball" with noted trainer Joe Abunassar, the former IMG Academy basketball guru........ Tony Allen and Rajon Rondo are coming along to work on some things and Allan Ray may join them. Other Celtics, such as team captain Paul Pierce and rookie Leon Powe might find their way out there as both spend the offseason in relative proximity to the facilities.
Abunassar’s programs are very progressive, heavily leveraging the expertise of Athletes Performance, an Arizona based firm that has won renown for its performance training work with NFL athletes. The program focuses on different areas, such as carefully constructed diet plans, muscle strength and coordination measurement, flexibility, and strength and conditioning. All of this is of course centered around the skills training work that Abunassar does himself. All the facilities and team members work together to implement the most effective strategy for accomplishing player and team goals with precise, measurable outcomes.
The quality of the daily scrimmage at this facility is top-notch, as many players come in and out of the city all summer to get some high level games and tweak their workout regiments. Top prospects will also be out there including Yi Jianlian and Rudy Fernandez. So, the level of competition and degree of preparation each of the attending Celtics will get should help them improve leaps and bounds over where they left off this season."
