Get that work.....I just hope Noah doesn't get too hyped. That can also lead to injuries. But with such a deep starting 5 and bench coming together, there should be less injuries, less iso, and more team ball...

These guys all sound hungry and intent on trying to win a Title together. Don't tell them they don't have a chance to win it all.

they need to pull a Jim Harbaugh and have satellite mini-camps in France, Latvia, Cameroon, and Puerto Rico

Melo looks like he's lost weight. Looks like he's getting ready for Olympic Melo.

The Melo is FAT thing has always been a myth. Maybe he doesnt have Lebron's super cut greek god body but then again only 2.9% of the world has that but he has never been FAT. He has a round face & the body armor he wears makes it appear like he has a gut but I really think it was just something that the Gallinari lovers trumped up in their anger over the trade.

Come on... For a pro athlete, he's far from toned. And by the way, pro athletes should be in that 2.9%.
And please don't refer to Ledouche as Greek. We have enough problems.

Video editing playing a part, but loved seeing all those shots dropping for both Melo and Noah. Gearing up to have a good year.

Oh jeez, this dumb argument again. I'm not a real doctor, but the human body has fat for a reason, and people's physiology are different. Fat has been unfairly demonized. What is healthy for someone may cause issues for someone else. I'd rather have him a little chubby in a uniform than cut in a suit.

A lot of it is just genetics. Abs are genetics. Some people barely do anything and have super well defined abs, some people just can't get them. Some people are born with a higher body fat % even when they are in elite shape. Melo is a good example of this.
jrodmc @ 7/8/2016 3:46 PM
Yeah i like how he's always fat, he's always out of shape, but he leads the team statistically and plays more minutes in total than most of these "melo is a fatboy" posters can type words.

I'm glad that Melo is already looking to be in great shape. The Olympic preparation is good for him and it makes him sharper at the very start of the season. This is exactly what this team needs going into next season.

melo has been in *very good* shape his entire career but never in *great* or *elite* shape. it all doesn't matter anyway... unless he finally goes deep into the playoffs and has to play extra minutes and play harder than the regular season. who knows-- he may get his chance with this team.

case in point: warriors played more games in the playoffs this season and it showed up in the finals. curry made some mental mistakes that were surely related to a lack of oxygen in his brain.

I get the feeling from what Hornacek has stated that he's going to push this team and get them in condition to run the floor much more than we've ever seen from this team. Melo is already off to a good start and should be able to more easily get into NBA game shape and more importantly "Horny Ball" shape.
