free gym time with professional trainers AND time to hang with their teammates? sign me up. basketball is what they do, it's who they are. i agree that it wouldn't look good to be the last guy who shows up for pre camp, which is kind of unfortunate, but on the other hand, they are All being watched by coaches, managers, and even their teammates and if they want to maintain respect from all of these people, you show up to do the thing that, again, they love to do anyway. i think the truth is somewhere in the middle, which means that everyone is right at least to some degree.
