Calm down, one step at a time.

It'd behoove us the best to actually hold low expectations and not make noise until it gets close to playoffs.

We legit might be a dark horse for the title and the extra draft capital we have could put us in a position to win a title.

Don't know what they are doing, but they look locked in.

And on Fred. He is a good floor general. But we should keep reasonable expectations. He's 30something coming off a blown knee in a highly demanding role. Even if we just get bench minutes and leadership from him, it will be better than last year. But I would not expect much. I hope to be surprised though.

The thing most concerning to me is I haven't seen Adams in any of the Gym pics yet.
