Why BI why? |
Instagram is the only social media I have and I follow BI. He does these weird live videos where he just kind of stares at the screen while he's doing random stuff. I'm too old to understand it, I guess. I keep expecting him to say something... |
That's how it usually is when people go live, including celebs. But I get you. I'm 25 and I don't get the point of it either. Pretty boring to me. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.

"he spent more time talking about Bron than Ingram. With that being said Magic is like a Big kid with a brand new toy, I wouldn't read much into it. "
Everything I said was accurate.. I get the context, merely saying Ingram was more of an afterthought.. which is understandable when he and Bron are mentioned in the same sentence. |

That's the narrative you're trying to promote.. but the fact of the matter is the majority of your takes skew in a certain direction. A good percentage of them aren't even good. As appose to some of those who aren't high on Ingram but have intelligent posts. |

He came off as more enthused at that time yes.. is this your main point of contention with my statement? Could a reasonable mind come to the same conclusion as I did?
At the end of the day it's not a big deal.. I was just agreeing that Magic was super excited to be talking about Bron, I really can't blame him.. |

@epak Ask KIROE.. he's the one who had an issue with us saying Magic spent the majority of his time talking about Bron when a question was asked about how he would effect Ingram..
I was thinking maybe he'd delve into some aspects of Ingram's game and provide insights as to how Bron would help him.
But again.. it's no big deal. It's not even a little deal.

You might wan't to get a better understanding of the word if that is the case.. anyway we can agree to disagree. As is customary. |

So u guys both like BI?
But kiroe is into body language and saying magic was in his feelings for BI while the actual words spoken by magic was less than what was spoken about Lebron? |

I don't wan't to speak for him.. but his commentary isn't usually all that favorable in regards to Ingram.
He had an issue with something that was pretty minor. |

I think we'll get an even better version of what would have been year 3 Ingram since we have Bron and Rondo.. This goes for Kuz as well. I'd be interested in seeing a break down from GT as to how Ball works with Bron. |

My man is safe for year three, he'll be actually 100% untouchable after they see his improvements this season.

If Leonard were healthy trading Ingram for him would be a no brainer. Not trading Ingram for a questionable Leonard is a no brainer. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

Next summer's potential free agents include: KD Kawhi, Klay, Butler, Cousins, Kyrie*
I have zero doubt we can and will get one of those guys. Ranked in ordered of who I want. Klay and KD feel like pipe. Butler feels like he ends up in NY with Kyrie. Let's see how Cousins looks but Kawhi is very likely headed to LA to join LeBron, BI, Kuzma, Lonzo, J Hart |

Yep, I agree with this.
But then again a year ago, Lebron was a pipe dream too so who knows. |

The pressure is on BI to prove he can be a franchise player. In his third season, KD averaged 30/8/3 and played all 82 games. I'd like to see BI average 20+ with the open looks he'll get as well as become a lock down defender. _________________ We only celebrate championships.
