Winners of 9 straight, 13 out of their last 14 games, and BI is getting better with each game. Still in a 3PT shooting slump but it doesn't matter, he's coming. This is what happens when you get away from the horrible ass Pels. :applause:
I was telling people he could do this years ago & they laughed at me. :facepalm He's one of the best volume mid-range scorers of this era and now that he's on an actual team and in the LEastern Conference people will see it for themselves.
Pels would have been better if him and zion could stay on the floor. Just a matter of time
It seems like another genius move of buy-low for an impact player ala the trade for Kawhi.
Kawhi was disgruntled and hurt. Raptors traded for him for a big trade pieces and one year contract but then he brought the Chip to Toronto.
Ingram was just mostly hurt. Raptors traded for him for a less big trade pieces. We will see how far Raptors will go this time.
Masai gets the last laugh, apparently. This team was his work.
Reminder he hasnt played more than 64 games since he was a rookie
What you were telling people is that he was better than Tatum and eventually when that seemed absurd that he was just as good. This is you in the 23 season still in denial in a topic about Tatum
[QUOTE]
BI has the highest Net Rating out of all the top 30 players in the league with Jokic coming in 2nd. Just because he's not chucking doesn't mean he isn't as good lol, wait til the POs.

as I recall, Tatum got caught up in your endless LeBron thing because they played together like 19 games and you went down a path of having to prove LeBron had some great team when he first got to the Lakers, but had failed them somehow.
One of the weirder, long-term unnecessary arguments I’ve ever seen on here.
Dude is a former All-Star. He supposed to have good games now and then in good stretches. Hes a ten year veteran looking to have his second good season team wise.
we are long long passed where you can point to a good record for two weeks as a proof he makes teams great. Especially when just like in New Orleans he’s the secondary franchise player like when the pelicans had that one really good year the only season Zion played 70 games.
He’s a perfectly good player. Hes hardly on a level to justify a

If someone is gonna have a ten years in breakout/re breakout it’s supposed to look a lot better than this before people who compared them to sure hall of famers pop back out of holes to talk shit like they called something.
He needs 6-7 years of whatever we’re calling this to be Demar DeRozan. I don’t think you get to claim victory for 2 weeks when you had a Tatum vendetta tied into it.
Lebron couldn't even get to the PLAYOFFS with this guy.

Yea pretty much.
What’s weird too is that he’s not even the best player on this team..
He’s been playing well, as has the team. But yea hardly seems worth making this thread.
They've started better than I expected but their schedule has been a cake walk.
Two wins vs the Pacers, two vs Brooklyn, two vs the Hawks (winning record due to shit schedule but not a good team) wins vs Washington, Charlotte, Memphis, theyve split with Milwaukee, split with Philly... and somehow beat the overrated Cavs thrice. Theyve yet to play a single game against Detroit, Miami, NYK, Orlando, Boston or anyone in the West.
Again, give em credit for winning the games in front of them... but their schedule has been Charmin ultra soft. Theyre not gonna keep this winning percentage up.
Edit: They have played three games vs the West, all losses to Houston, Dallas and San Antonio respectively.
better than Tatum after all
[QUOTE=Yes or No;15044742]better than Tatum after all[/QUOTE]
Love me some Brandon Ingram I'd happily put him over Tatum especially in the clutch
dude's a baller. front office are genius.
we already have defense rebounding and playmaking just needed a little more of scoring punch and B.I.3 brings exactly that
perfect fit for the team, and perfect situation for him
masai is a genius. his final gift to the franchise was grabbing 2024 45th pick future pointguard allstar jamal shead from the kings
jamal is already top 7 in the league for assist to playmaking ratio...
Poor man’s KD
They should have traded Zion. He’ll be injured before season’s end.

I think you mean poor man's Derozan..
I'm not even saying that as an insult but as a fact.
