Magic forward Brian Cook has landed in Coach Stan Van Gundy's doghouse after not improving his conditioning enough this summer.

His body is noticeably toned and tighter, but Van Gundy isn't impressed.

"His conditioning hasn't improved. If it does improve he'll play well, but he didn't spend as much time on his conditioning as the other guys, and it's hurting him out here in terms of competing," Van Gundy said. "It's not a major issue and he's not in bad shape, but he's not in as good of shape as he should have been or as good as some of the other guys he's competing against."

The Magic acquired Cook from the Lakers last November in a trade involving Trevor Ariza.
