    Pretty cool idea to have the office surround the practice facility

    From what I remember when I was looking around, most of the teams upgrading their facilities now are paying around $45-$70 million or so. That Spurs training center has a several-acre park, research centers, outdoor area for events, in addition to the stuff you said. That's not a practice facility but a practice facility plus a lot of other crap. No way "just" a training facility costs as much or more than some of the most expensive NBA stadiums.

    Outside looks like Kelsey Seybold Clinic

    Inside looks like a Lifetime Fitness.

    Looks like a 20 mill facility.

    looks nice to me. Finally, we all as a fanbase can look at this facility from across the street with no access and say "we did it!"

    Gosh Tillman is so broke … wish he had half the business sense of half of clutchfans. Can you believe this guy uses a ton of debt to make money at a much greater return than the interest!?!? What a bum! I think his yaught is only like 150 million…poverty!

    honestly the collective iq of this forum is nauseating sometimes.

    Who cares. Anything is better than the Church league basketball court we practice on now.

    Looks like Sengun has an area dedicated to him to practice free throws.

    But why is there a Visitng Team lockerrrom. F those guys … get your own practice facility.

    Pretty ugly. Looks like the George R Brown. That’s supposed to look like a ship, right? That was intentional?

    And was this “needed?” I’ve only seen vids from the Lifetime -size gym we normally see clips of and a few weight room clips. Is all of this extra stuff going to make any kind of a difference? I wonder if the players even care. Maybe they do. I dunno, it just seems like we spend so little time during a season practicing, why bother?

    again, maybe players do care. I wouldn’t.
