Sounds like an advanced metric... some people will not be happy. |
GT called him worst starter in the NBA at one point cuz of advanced metrics |
He was -- at one point.
That point, is not the same point referenced in the statistic above. |

Boxscore analysts have their purpose in the NBA...and it should never be within the scouting department. |

Those who are hyper critical of Ingram will simply say their criticisms were justified at the time they made them. Which makes drawn out debates with them pointless. They can never be wrong. |

Yea, it's tough. Like many young players the parameters have to be explained. Is one talking about the current state of the player? Are they taking into account the player's development? Do they think the player will not improve?
I think the BI supporters were thinking BI at the young age would improve. Those that are against BI, perhaps they didn't think he would improve? Hard to tell.
And yet there are still some who wouldn't mind trading BI now. Insane |

this part cant be ignored. He clearly is not an optimum fit in a Lebron offense and that gets 5x worse when you then add in Kyrie or Kawhi.
If AD trade doesnt happen I'm all for seeing what we could get for him in a different trade _________________ (bleep) Kawhi |

Or let him run the second unit. If we get Kawhi, start either Kuz or Hart and BI plays the Ginobli/Lamar role. |

Ty Lue had the right idea about staggering Lebron and BI's minutes. |

You act like the haters have given trying to trade him a rest.
First it was questioning his skills... now that he proved them somewhat... they continue to go after his health.
Sure, that's a fair concern but it's not like these supporters are debating themselves. |

A poster said they would trade him. I came up with an alternative solution while comparing him to two stars with rings. The Ingram stans search for reasons to (bleep) and moan |

Not sure hows his health, any updates please but given how he finished last year, this should be his breakout season.
He should really emulate Kawhi. He can play that game, Kawhi is probably a better comparison for him than KD anyway though he is built more like KD.
If everything is okay with his health no reason he shouldnt come back next season with 15-20 extra pounds and averaging over 20 ppg. |

I agree, smartest thing to do if we had both Kawhi, Lebron and BI is let BI come off the bench and try to destroy the other team's bench units or at the very least stagger his minutes where there is never time when atleast one of the big 3 is not on the floor.
But he will be a very expensive 6th man then. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi |

We have him cheap for another year. Let’s cross that bridge once we get there. We could have Kuz and Hunter/Culver at that time as well so we’d hsve replacements. Having those 5 guys on the wing would be a great problem to have. |

On offense he prioritizes FT's, layups, and corner three's.. in that order.. Ingram should be okay. |
