Not sure if this was brought up before... but do you guys think that spending approximately 10-15 min before every game could help the team/players maintain their focus/solidarity going into the games by curbing all negative thoughts outside of basketball, as well as negative thoughts within the sport. Is the idea a bit too zen for sports?
Thoughts?
Should teams use "group-meditation" to help maintain focus??

I think it would be particularly useful during playoffs and when teams are in a slump etc.

Puff, puff, pass. Pretty sure Amir, JJ and Ross do this before games currently.

It worked for Maple Leafs (Love Guru movie), so it should work for Raptors !
"But the thing is, maybe I do want to wake up one morning and say, `Baby, let's go to the Bahamas. Today.' That costs money. So what if I want to do that?
