I'm expecting him to come in better shape this year.
I'm sure Darryl told him to "better be ####ing ready".

Also, remember that he played until July 7 the previous year, so he had a very short summer last year.
Even in the years he went on long runs with the Kings, their summers were still a month longer than what he had last year (and he was almost a decade younger too).
