Why do anything if you're just gonna get hurt. We all should just sit on our computers and talk crap on the internet.. Oh wait..

Why practice when you could get hurt?

You can't get better if you don't practice. All players do it. Remember when just about the entire C's team when out to LA for a week and played over the summer.

Jordan had guys come out during his Space Jam shoot and played pick up games.

People worry too much about injuries. If it's going to happen it's going to happen. Guy's could roll and ankle walking on the side walk. Tear an ACL just jogging or going up the stairs. They could get hurt first day of training camp, what are they not suppose to do that too?

It's not like he's wrestling, or ufc fighting, or running from the bulls, he's doing what he's suppose to be doing.
That was supposed to be sarcastic.  May as well draft someone who has never played basketball since he will have little wear and tear on his body ;)

I'd say training/practice in the offseason. Staying in shape.

He's playing basketball is what he's doing. And I see nothing wrong with that.

I might have missed one practice out of all practices this year. I can practice. It's not about that at all. We're just talking about practice. Not the game... practice! not the game that I go out there and die for. Not the game... practice man! I know I'm supposed to lead by example. I do, I honestly do. What are we talking about? Practice?

Lol geez can't a human being or basketball player have a normal life and enjoy their hobbies?

Playing basketball in Vegas, go for it Johnson. He's a grown man, pretty sure he knows how to handle responsibilities.

Anyone know the rules on playing pick up games? I emember MJ had a special clause in his contract so he could play in them whenever he wanted, seemly saying other guys couldn't. Was there a rule change or is it only for pic up games?

The OP said he wasn't invited..

Yet I'm pretty sure the reason he WAS invited was that he stays in Vegas. Why is there such a problem?
