First video, named "Paul Pierce's workout - Waltham (9/17/08)".

J.R. Giddens looks pretty strong and athletic, and Pierce's refers to Walker's bi's as "guns".

Cool video. Giddens looks like a world class athlete. Hopefully he's been working on his ball handling like crazy, but I haven't heard that.

Forget how big Pierce is. A little disappointed in Walker's size. He seems smaller than Pierce. All amazing athletes

Best off-season stuff so far.  These guys are unreal athletes.  This is gonna be a fun training camp.

You get a better understanding how big they really are when the trainer is standing next to them. The trainer looks like he is 3 feet tall.

Now that I really think about it, just look at Jamario Moon. I mean, why can't Walker and Giddens, or at least one of them, turn out to be productive like Moon or Baby in their rookie season and back Pierce up along with Miles?

I would really like to see the rookies and Miles contribute than some other overpaid small forward backup. I really hopes one of the three plays playoff solid basketball for us.

Yeah really cool video.

It's really good to see PP working out with those two.

I started a thread on this maybe 2days back.

Not a problem, at all. Happy to see I'm not the only person who this video excites. A lot of good signs in the video. They all look really comfortable around each other, and that's always good for chemistry. I just can't wait for training camp and the season to start.

Can't stop watching this, saw it a couple days ago, but is still fun. At the end you can see tony Allen running with the tires. Was disappointed to not see more explosiveness from him; however, he may just know to let Paul win. Giddens at least does not seem to back down from the competition. Given that TA'a main issue has been confidence. Not sure why they signed him only to have him go up against such stiff rookie competition.

Yeah. Though Brian Doo is actually only 4 feet tall.

Paul always seems to like the young guys, get along with them, and help boost their confidence.   You can't say that for every star player in this league.

I was impressed by Giddens... he's confident and looks to be in great shape.
