Schedule Is Out

[HeelsPanthersCanes]

One nationally televised game (1/21 vs Cavs on ESPN), two streamed games (12/22 @ Cavs on Peacock, 1/31 vs Spurs on Prime). 

Brutal first 20 games. Can’t see anymore than 7 wins. That’s assuming we steal a home game as a dog and don’t drop a game like at the Wizards as the second part of a road back to back. 
 

What’s everyone’s thoughts on this year? What would you be happy with regarding our record, player health/development, and franchise progress?

Expectations as of right now are nothing more than the young players developing and Lee taking the next step as a head coach. Need to see both unequivocally.

Beyond that the obvious elephant in the room is LaMelo Ball. I put the odds (and this is being extremely optimistic) of him remaining relatively healthy throughout the bulk of the season at 50/50. If he gets a low grade injury early and puts up absolutely no argument about sitting and collecting millions then you have your answer and we can move forward accordingly.
