If anything, it shows the exact opposite of that. |
Why so? |
We needed Lebron to carry this team and will us to victory. If Ingram was in the game all game I bet it would be a different story. |
How about he comes off the bench when he gets healthy? |

Ingram can generate his own shot consistently. We kinda miss that, especially with Rondo out as well. He's under-rated by the Lakers fanbase imo. |

Ingram's going to be a stud in 3 years time. |
3 years from today? |

| Hopefully it's nothing that will keep him out long. His defense on Demar was sorely missed in the 2nd half |

Demar and Rudy were scoring at will against us. Both scored over 30 points. |

You didn't see how they looked with Bron out of the game boss? There's a reason why he had to play 39 minutes. |
Is that what it's based on?
Great when BI is healthy, he can come off the bench and be that #2 when lerbon sits. |
If that's your takeaway from this game that's fine.. I no longer have too much of a stomach for debate on this site. You guys are going to believe what you believe. |

I don't know if I'd have him in the starting lineup, but I'd have him on the floor over 30 minutes for his defense alone. We needed him to contain Demar.
It's like McGee and Chandler. McGee started, but Chandler was by far more valuable this game. |

Sadly he'll be traded long before then. He'll start to blossom just as Lebron's run with the Lakers is coming to an end. |

I think he'd be great off the bench. Do you not agree? |

Isn't that what Lance (60th% in isos) and Beasely are supposedly for? |

C'mon man, we know I don't agree that he should come off the bench. |

Sure, but Ingram's shot 49.5% from the field over the past 10 games. Lance has shot 31% and Beasley's very up and down.
Ingram has a constant miss-match at the 2. Most of the time he can just rise right up over ... |

On crutches? That looks like one or two games off. Time to activate the Bonga? |

Too brittle, when a guy steps under him? The same situation that has injured others who don't have injury issues. |
