| This really isn't the night to dump on him considering he was one of the few who didn't have a bad game. |

Wish he started off on Mitchell.
Hart is such booty on defense.
I knew he was gonna let Mitchell go off.
By the time BI guarded him in the 3rd, he was already feeling it.
At least BI made him work. |

He does not. The TEAM would be better off with him cutting, setting screens, filling lanes and defending with the occasional ISO. He is not a good PG. It really irritates me that I rarely ever see him get out on the break and fill a lane. He could get easy baskets that way because he can finish. |

But not the mindset. It hurts him as a player and the team as a whole when he’s forced to play pg. |
I was being sarcastic  |
My bad. I feel like we should understand each other better at this point. |
Lol  |

He can still do all those things while playing PG.. As he did last season. |

how about we move Zo to the post sometimes when we go small, throw him the ball down and make BI cut. we should either get a good looking 3pt shot or a layup/dunk

| Crazy.. He can't single handedly take over a game against one of the better defensive teams in the league while everyone else was struggling and he gets dumped on lol.. |

I honestly think it would be best if they started Beasely. The half court offense is beyond putrid right now, and he's by far the most experienced and skilled bucket getter. |

He wasn’t the reason we lost by any means but playing him at PG shines a light on his weaknesses. |

When Kuz has great games, BI shows up.
When BI has good/decent games, Kuz is a non factor.
How about Kuz support BI the way BI supports Kuz. |

Pretty soon that small sample size from last year is going to be a little bit bigger sample size when including this year and we can stop saying BI is a legit PG. He's a good PG for his size, which is not the same. |

imo, we are using him completely wrong on offense, but thats not his fault. he has little fault in the way we play on offense

You guys aren't thinking...
You don't beat good defensive teams with one man. If you were watching the game you'll notice he tried to move the ball, which is the only way to break down a good defensive team with an anchor like RG.
Tell me what he should have done differently.. I'm glad he didn't start playing selfishly. |

| He's being mis-used, either from our idiot coaching staff or from his own volition. Its abundantly clear where he's best at, but somehow that's not how he's used most of the time. |

1. He was -19 2nd worst on the team tonight 2. Is the “dumbass” necessary?

I just saw he played 35 minutes and was shocked. I don't remember him playing more than 5 minutes after the first quarter. |

I didn't say he was a good point guard.. He can certainly be solid at that position with an actual offense to execute. |

| Sorry but you can't know anything about basketball, or you simply lack objectivity if you come in here tonight and try to blame him for what took place. |

I’d assume its hard for others to play well next to Ingram when hes constantly dribbling the air out of the ball and throwing it to the other team |
