Like I said; Magic was completely correct about this young man.

Plenty of people here sure do seem like it.


I don’t see it at all. Some may have critiques but I haven’t seen as many hate driven posters go at BI; unlike a former Laker.

Never left neither.


Feels good to be on the right side of history, am I right folks?

I never liked any Woody Allen movies and I've always loved BI.

I'd like to see more PnR action with him and Randle.. There isn't a whole lot you can do with Randle if he has a step on you, especially if you're a PF or a Center.

Teams would just go small and switch it every time.


Go small and get bullied by Randle.. and not have a deterrent for Ingram on the drive.. Good luck with that. =)

Covington would hold up ok against Julius, and I don't know that BI would have much of an advantage against Simmons.

Now BI with a consistent pull-up 3 would make that PnR combo a lot more effective.


I agree with Ingram and the 3.. But I don't think Covington can handle Randle.

In the future though, those two can be a real problem in the PnR the way they're developing. I'd like to see more of it.

He went toe to toe with him the whole game. Putting to rest the conversation that Simmons is the clear #1 of the '16 draft. Also hopefully putting to rest the notion that Philly is way ahead of us in their rebuild. They have a true All Star but we have more depth and are right there with them.

it seemed like he lost confidence after he missed those three straight free throws and got stuffed on a few drives. He was sleep walking through much of the second half.

Gotta give credit to him. I feel his "20ppg" statement was way overblown, and made out to be some type of deadline when really, he knew Ingram would respond to a high goal set for himself as opposed to hearing something like "well just go out and try your best".

I was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down on BI until the GSW game. I didn't think he would be big enough for the moment.

If he keeps it up for the balance of the season, I will happily admit my error.

There are outright haters.. who you don't see so much lately..

Theres the guys on the fence who might be a little overly critical but would be happy to see him succeed.

Then you have those who aren't convinced but only come around when he plays bad.

We are bipolar collectively here on LG lol.. We're a spoiled franchise, so I kinda get why we are so hot and cold with our talent.

It was a bad second half, but it looked to me like he was psyched to go to the line again (even though he continued to miss). And he kept putting shots up. I'm not in his head, but it seemed like he was still confident the could make the shots.

Go back a couple hundred pages. I'm too lazy to document receipts, but there are quite a few of them.

Yea many didn't agree when I mentioned it before.. but If Ingram becomes a solid shooter I think he has a career that's just as impactful as Simmons.

And I believe people don't take into account Ball when comparing our squad with the Sixers. Ball, Kuz, Ingram, Randle, Vs Simmons and Imbiid.. 3 Years from now I think perspectives will be a lot different on who's more talented.

Simmons/BI may become hopefully a Magic/Bird kind of rivalry.

Nice game by Ingram. A bit inefficient in the second half but he made up for it with the game winner and a huge assist down the stretch.

I watched the spectrum Spanish feed, and it is excellent. I don't even speak Spanish.

Their nickname for BI: The Kinston Cobra

Sometimes they call him: Cobrita
