BI isolation kills the flow of the game, doesn't help that he misses them badly too.

That's not his fault.. He shouldn't be put in the position to be isoing to begin with.

This is all about coaching guys. You insert plays into the offense to get looks for players. Not hope one materializes by winging it.

So many places where he has open pull up jumpers and decides to force the issue in traffic. You can just tell he has zero confidence in his jumper. Frankly, rightfully so

This is true.. I expected him to struggle shooting. I don't think you can change your shot mechanics then come out shooting at a high proficiency out the gate.

Shouldn't be forcing him to go up against starters. It would benefit him to grow confidence and develop his all-around game in a reserve role.

Don't think it's even hating on Ingram to say this. He can gain confidence in his scoring ability doing this and work his way into deserving that starting role.

Now if he's benched, it's a demotion and doesn't quite work the same way.

Seriously the least of my worries, he is missing layups.

Pretty hard to defend him when he's playing like this.. He looks like he belongs in the g league. Dude missed a layup on a guy that's 6'4 that was basically under the basket.

Every time he drives to the rim he flails like a crash test dummy in those old Benz commercials.

God watching him pisses me off. Looks a lot like Wesley Johnson out there.
