   “I didn’t realize how much this team needed a facelift.”

   I heard a lot of things I like in a simple one minute clip.

   Jama talking about Precious and how people don’t realize how good he is at distributing and talking about how overall special he is

   Talking about Darko’s system and how guys like Precious are going to have to really adapt to this nee system

   Lastly the point that this team needed a facelift and that this new system is “something these players haven’t gotten to be able to do in 10+ years” and how “it gives them something to talk about and really connect with each other about”

   as a big time Precious believer, I’m liking what I’m hearing about involving him more in the offense and making him a key point of attack. I also look forward to the better vibes this year. This year could be really fun.

   I know this sub will jump on Precious early if he struggles, but he’s someone I think you really need to reserve judgement on until later in the year. He’s never had a consistent role, so if this coaching staff sticks with him through the year giving consistent minutes in a consistent role I think we’ll see how good he can be by the end of the year.
