Mile Ilic didn't play in Tuesday night's preseason game against the Celtics, but he is getting good reviews anyway--in the weight room and with the assistant coaches. Ilic still weighs the same as he did when he arrived from Serbia but claims that if he was eating "Serbian food", he would weigh more. When not in the weight room he has working with shooting coach Bob Thate and big man coach Bill Cartwright.
