Have you ever walked on Red Square on Sunday morning? If not, we report that it is quite windy there. And if on the eve of 20 hours you spent on an airplane, you just drove into the hotel, took a nap for several hours, and you were already awakened to be taken to be photographed. We, for example, in a similar situation as a consolation bonus that awaits there, on Red Square, would be satisfied only with the Bear drinking vodka and playing the accordion. Although no, we only arrived to finally take a look at the Clippers.
The first of the bus appeared Yaroslav Korolev. He did not look sleepy. But he did not show much delight at the sight of St. Basil’s Cathedral.
Chris Kaman seemed to expect more. Yes, there are no bears. And the harmonies are not heard.
Aaron Williams now wants only one thing - to return to the hotel as soon as possible, and sleep at least a couple more hours.
But Tim Thomas seems to be in a good mood - he is already giving a short interview for NBA TV. "Nice here. And how do you say this place is called?" he asks.
Chris also decided to show interest in what is happening. Or maybe he takes off just to then look at everything “with a fresh mind”.
That's who always has a great mood! Kuttino Mobley has fun himself, and makes both Mike Dunleavy and Sam Cassel smile. By the way, work has already begun for everyone. This shooting, against the backdrop of the cathedral, is a protocol event for which everyone rose to such an early age.
The new official ball also takes part in it. It looks a bit unusual. Pay attention - another picture of the grooves.
Asian tourists who immediately attacked the Clippers with their cameras were pushed back, and now professionals work. The official photographer of the delegation is the one on its knees.
The next stage is a photo with the club's official game jerseys. Elton Brand decided that he would have to wear a T-shirt, and readily took off his sweatshirt, under which a T-shirt of the sample of last season was revealed. No, that won't work. For such a photo, which appeared on the official website of the NBA, the new technical sponsor of the league immediately rolls out a claim!
So you have to get dressed ...
Correct the hairstyle ...
Now you can work!
In the meantime, we are trying to discern how it is about the layer of air between the soles and paving stones. Elton seems to be looking through something. But in any case, this test is not indicative, because the main stars did not come in sneakers.
And Mobly, who looks like a full-time jolly on the team, is trying to get Kaman up!
Clippers will get a few more hours of sleep only in the late afternoon. From Red Square, the team went to USK CSKA for a morning training session. The last half hour of this lesson will be open to the press, so we are also heading to Leningradsky Prospekt.
