Is it because of take foul? By quick?

Looks like all the players have decided that Ingram is the guy. I thought it might end up more egalitarian but it's looking like Ingram might get 25 a game on this team.

He should have been canned year one.

For doing what the FO asked him?

He was brought here to win...he didn't. That's reason enough.

Why do you say that?

No coach will win the last 3 years.

Especially if they hand out pizza.

RJ has been the most reliable/ consistent starter this pre-season. Big season for him I think.

He very explicitly was not brought here to win. He was brought in to reset the culture and develop players.

Nah, I'll take Rj and 9th thanks.

I think most people on here opposed it too, but Boston supposedly laughed at our offer too.

You disagree with the rest of my assessment?

Tbf, I have been skimming through these games so maybe it's not the most accurate assessment.

I don't think he's looked particularly good this pre season. I watch him and I don't see what he's particularly good at.

He’s fantastic at shooting the 3, protecting the ball, and penetrating the middle for a little floater. Decent playmaker and defender to. Hes shooting like 25% from 3 on high volume so far, so no **** he looks bad lol

How'd that work out?

This wasn't true for Demar and isn't true for RJ. Just because you're not winning a title with these guys as your #1, that doesn't make them non-winning players.

3/14 from the floor, 1/8 from 3. Most of his scoring has come from the free throw line tonight. He's going to shoot better than this most nights, but I'm just not a huge fan of his game.

Nobody should be worried about whether they're going in, he's an incredible shooter. If he stops taking them, that's when you worry.

I hope we didn’t offer it. Not in a position to be trading cost controlled rookie guys and a guy like RJ we can reasonable keep so that we can bring in a 30 year old

I don’t care what Jack says the whistle has been way unfair this game. Simons just lost the ball and got a call.

Huh? When?

I hate how guys get bailed out in the NBA......out of control drive.....loses ball.....falls to the ground. Foul.
