Fans Will Get to Attend June 14th Mini-Camp at BoA

If I were to go to this what should I expect, I live all the way down towards fayetteville so it would be a drive. How long would a mini camp like this last, and are there autographs?

Ive been to training camp, so if its somethin like that it'd be cool

From what I have gathered. You get to sit and watch them practice. No interaction. No autographs (planned). They will do whatever was scheduled for that particular practice, whatever that may be. Practices are usually 90 minutes or so.

Although if they are having a good practice, Rivera may extend it. But that is just wishfull thinking, as I am hoping to be there.

There may be limited concessions as well.

Rivera said it was for the players who have never been to the stadium. So the guys who may not be here for Fan Fest will get a practice at BOA, and to get the youngster acclimated to getting to, and around the stadium. So it won't seem like such a big deal when they actually do Fan Fest.

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
