Rick Carlisle has already vowed to maintain the uptempo style in Dallas, but now he's warning his new players that training camp won't be a breeze, according to The Dallas Morning News.

"They're going to find out that playing faster and with momentum isn't just a matter of going out there and having a little more fun," Carlisle said. "It is a lot of work. This will probably be one of the tougher training camps these guys have ever had."

Carlisle also vowed to allow Jason Kidd to run a portion of the offense on Wednesday.

"The physical commitment to being an uptempo team is something that very few guys have experienced. We made a commitment to run my last year in Indiana, and the players were shocked how difficult training camp was," he added.
