Ingram was garbage as usual. Just didnt get the ball last game and became his passive self. I think we need to sell high right now before his value plummets.


Leading us to a W is garbage?

And I didn't see at all, not even once, BI fist-bump LeBron at the FT line that last preseason game. Team chemistry my ass.

Based off these preseason stats, what do you think Ingram averages this season:

25 minutes per game
17.4 PPG
5.0 RPG
1.6 APG
1.4 SPG
0.6 BPG
47.5 FG%
14.3 3P%
83 FT%

He'll get more minutes, but probably not the same opportunities with 100% Lebron.

Leaning to say over 20 ppg this time (FINALLY). People who are saying 18 ppg on better % could be right but Ingram could get 18-19 on just a small bump on his FT % alone.

He seems to play better for now when Lebron is sitting. This should allow Lebron to stay fresh during the regular season, considering he led the league in minutes last season.

I'm more in that 18ppg ballpark on increased ts%. If no Lebron I think he would've made that leap to 20ppg this season.

BI wants to be great, his idol Stackhouse expects him to be great, we should expect 20-25PPG this season and I believe he can do it.

The kid was invisible on the floor during our team's last game. Really disappointing. I don't care if he plays or not. He still needs to put up stats.

I don't think he'd be able to get 25 even if we force fed him like last season.

I think he's in that 18-20 ppg range this season. I think from January to the end of the season, he will be an efficient 21-22 point scorer hopefully.

That would be good to.

I think he will hit 20ppg. It's clear hes the second option after lebron and he has the ability and confidence now to do it. I'm thinking 10pts off assists and 10 pts creating his own shot is very reasonable given what hes displayed thus far.

I'm thinking between 16-18 but I'm more concerned about his defensive impact. That will probably have bigger effect on wins this season.

So hard to predict BI's PPG. Defenses are going to key off LeBron, BI's going to get opportunities, and he's going to burn some teams I think, like 30 point games now and then even. Teams are going to adjust and consider BI a secondary threat, and someone's gotta cover Javale too, leaving players like Hart, Kuz, KCP, Lonzo wide open. When that happens BI's scoring goes down, other players blow up in scoring. Rinse and repeat.

All along, I think Bi's going to have an impact on defense, and I my wild guess is he'll average out to 18ppg to compliment LeBron's 25+, with some solid D and perhaps 5 or 6 assists as he gets adept at finding the open man.

With disruptive defense that helps key the highest speed offense in the NBA. That's where BI and Lonzo will shine the most IMO.

The primary key to 50+ wins imo.

Ingram/Lonzo have to be really good on defense for this team.

Its hard to imagine him averaging more than 13 shots a game and making more than 6 of them, which is what he did last season. I hope to see his ft% increase to 75% at least and for him to get there more than last season, which was 5 times a game.

I’d be surprised if he averaged more than 18 pts a game honestly, but hope to see not only his FT% increase but also his blocks and steals.

The 3's are a lot less important if he can draw free throws at a high volume and knock them down at the 80% clip he shot in the preseason. I'm just skeptical that he'll be able to get that volume while sharing the court with LeBron.

You, Anthony, Harrison, and Trevor were great on the Sedano Show! Which says a lot because Sedano is a pro at what he does.
