Draft Express catches up with Antonio Daniels at the Adidas Nations camp. He talks about his conditioning, what he's working on this off-season, the Olympics, and he mentions Jim Larranaga(!).

If you click the link, you'll also find a nice interview with Antawn Jamison.

Both Daniels and Jamison talked about forgoing individual goals, and instead, focusing on “Team goals”; about the importance of keeping their bodies ready for the long NBA season; about continually working on their games – Just a couple of class guys.

There’s a reason guys stay in the league for a long time and contribute to winning teams. Daniels is a guy who never could shoot very well, and he no longer had blow-by speed or explosiveness, but he’s got such a mature, thoughtful approach to the game that he makes himself useful and helps the team win. All that comes through in the interview. It’d be nice to see guys like Blatche and Young adopt a similar outlook.
