    Ingram has always had the talent but has never had a really good coach who could use him as the offensive weapon he could be. And I’ve said it before that I think Gentry is one of the best offensive coaches in the league so landing in NO was perfect for BI.

Robert Williams is a mess but you can still play him in spurts. This is where I could see the need for a big but not a starter though because Theis is more than solid enough.



      Hayward was bad but he's been more than + this season. Kanter i can't stand. so given the fact Hayward was a no show and Kanter mins with no Jaylen on a B2B I don't mind the loss.



      The Bucks are really good!
      I remember someone being so happy with Kanter early play. I reminded them how bad he is defensive. I can't remember who it was lol.

      This is when you kind of miss Al Horford and Baynes. Tough defensive mind guys.

      I will say the Bucks are much tougher. Only because they are dead set on getting the ball into the paint. But in different creative ways. It's not always Giannis at the top of the key trying to drive into the paint.

        It’s almost as if he went to an organization thats actually focusing on developing its own talent!

          How anyone could give Hayward a pass and take a dig at Kanter all the in same breath is something else I tell ya. The defending of Hayward has reached Kyrie defending last year levels of annoying for me.

          Sometimes ya just gotta trust the eye test to get the real story and leave the plus/minus alone.

            Yeah, I would say he has still surprised alot of people. and for his role he's still not too bad in spurts for the Regular Season. Brad has really done a good job with him there but against teams that matter in the postseason that isn't gonna fly.

            I miss Horford and Baynes but they haven't missed those guys as much I thought they would've...Theis has been really good in that area also The Perimeter defense is amazing. Tatum might be one of the best team defenders in all of the NBA.

              He had a bad game after going 25/7/1/2. Doesn't most of Celtics twitter want him shipped off for Drummond? so i find it hard to believe it's at that level.

                  Still early to say he's great and all is well, despite all the articles after that Lakers game. He's still having games where he scores 6 points and does very little in 30 minutes. If he puts together a decent streak of double-digit scoring that would be a start.

                    Trash?.... I think it's the word that stings. "James Young is Trash" That statement makes sense because he's out of the league and 24 years old. I think a players situation causes most problems (especially development wise). He went from number 2 pick. To having Lonzo Ball joining him. To it all blowing up once LeBron James joined. I'm not saying LeBron is a career killer. Playing with him is like you better bring it. There is no figure out it as we go.

                    It why I don't think they will be no problem once Zion comes back. Gentry makes **** work. Not even mentioning the Warriors. When the Pels had AD and Cousins. When they finally started hitting their mark, Cousins went down. We never really got a chance to see them in a playoffs scenario.

                    But if you watch any Zion stuff from the pre-season. He doesn't need plays much to be effective. He didn't shoot 71% because they isolated him lol. Pels are down in pace this year (down to 4th). They have lead the league in pace the last 3-4 season.

                      It's literally the same guy.

                      Some thought that was his ceiling, some though he had room to grow.

                        Lol... I never defend Kyrie lol. I like Hayward. But his fit to this team is weird. You got 2 other players at his position. Brown and Tatum.

                        I think it's like you said. He's good now. But in the playoffs we'll have to see. Teams love to attack him on the pick and roll (it's a death horse at this point).

                        Definitely agree on Theis though....

                          Plus/Minus in a single game is pretty useless anyway, small hot/cold shooting streaks in game can move it heaps.

                            Don't hear this everyday.

                            Raptors were using their city edition court tonight. Except they had an issue with it and it got damaged so they brought in their regular court instead.

                            I wonder what would've happened had things been the other way. If the regular court wasn't up to code, would they be allowed to use an alternate one?

                              The only time I think it's worth looking at. Is for line up strength or late in the season usually playoffs. But from game to game. 100% agree

                              Oh Zach LaVine... That first ooop... jeeez
