Just needs to add 3pt shooting


not until he is confident....he is pretty good in the perfect setup....catch, time to align his feet and shoulders, and have a clean release....but honestly, I do not see the purpose in him shooting when it is not a confident shot for him. 3's are great....if you can make close to 40% of them.


Shooting 33% from 3 is as valuable as shooting 50% from 2. 40% from 3 is like shooting 60% from 2. You don’t have to make it at a 40% clip to make it very valuable especially when you consider gravity/spacing.


You do when those misses leads to long rebounds and leak outs for points the other way. The three is a double edged sword. Even now imo.

No, his shooting is just very concerning.


Reasonable projection is DeRozan with better defense.


DeRozan never shot below 70% from the line, this is Ingram’s 3rd straight season of doing so

Derozan also wasn't as efficient as Ingram 3 years into his career. It took derozan 4 years to average 18ppg Ingram is going to do it in his 3rd.

Punches BI in the back

Dirtiest player in the league easily , bitter hamstringless dude.


Resorting to dirty playing is because the player gave up on any hope of defending him. That's a good sign, BI was driving and scoring at will and they know they can't stop it by playing clean.

DeMar career eFG% 46.3%

Ingram eFG at 21 50.2%

DDR TS% this season 52.4%

Ingram TS% at 21 54%

DDR eFG during his all star seasons

2014 45.2%
2016 46.3%
2017 47.7%
2018 48.8% at the age of 28

Ingram's eFG% at the age of 21 50.2%

So, who knows... maybe by the time DDR is in his thirties... he can catch up to Ingram's shooting numbers.

Ingram's TS% is higher shooting poorly at the line. This means his numbers from the field are way better than DDR.

If he continues to improve as he has the last part of this season... the TS% won't even be close anymore.

This is the type of (bleep) that causes people to come in this thread and gloat whenever he has a bad game.
Sure, he has all star upside. But it's not guaranteed. And a top 10 player of all time (like Magic and Kobe)? He's shown no signs of being that.

Why isn’t the front office sending videos like this into the league office. That’s clearly not a basketball play and warrants a flagrant. He should’ve been kicked out of the game.
I mean....the Rockets front office was all about sending videos of Rondo “spitting” on Paul.

Im not trying to say it always happens, but it is a frequent occurrence. Even more troubling is that a lot of teams, ourselves included, opt for transition defense instead of the rebound.

well he aint even shooting 33% and you have to factor in the spacing factor a 40% 3 point shooter brings to a team of offense over a player who defenders dont respect as a 3 point shooter

Kidd 46.4
Westbrook 46.3
Wall 46.2
DSJ 46.0
Iverson 45.2

(Zion 70.5)

It's interesting how people call Ingram a trash shooter at 21 when he's shooting 50.1% while many who they worship... Westbrook, Kobe... shoot even worse. They will say... "Oh, well it was a different era when Kobe and Jordan were playing"... but that didn't seem to affect Stockton, Nash, Reggie. You also need to take into account that shot creators shoot more poorly than catch and shoot guys... but Ingram is a guy who can create his own shot. As someone who loves great shooters, I'm far from satisfied with Ingram's shooting... but keep these other players in mind if you are going say how bad he is.

That and-1 against Faried was something we haven't seen. He put his shoulder into him and after the call he pushed his arm out to clear up more space.
Looked like a Harden move.

DeRozan completely changed his archetype from USC to Toronto.

I agree but mid range jumpers lead to those, to a slightly lesser extent, as well. In addition passing up those shots can lead to worse shots that also lead to leak outs and TOs. I like it when he passes them up to attack the rim, which has been far more common lately. But when he passes them up to ISO’s which often lead to contested fade-away jumpers and TOs, it’s incredibly frustrating. He’s made progress in that area but still has a ways to go. With that said, I’ve been encouraged lately.

Wasn't it already proven that not all 3-point misses lead to long rebounds because the wingspans/standing reaches of guys prevent the ball from going out behind 10'-15' away from the hoop?

Again, I’m not saying that all misses do this, but when a team is trying to make a run, and a guy who is only really giving you “gravity” while still shooting that piss poor percent while chucking (such as bron and Kuzma going 6-19 from 3) those misses lead to SOME points the other way for long rebounds and simply not getting good a possession. That simply isn’t good to have on the court and becomes a negative.

Maybe I’m just an old head stuck in a different era refusing to accept analytics entirely.

They’re not even a frequent occurrence. The data shows that 3 pointers lead to fewer transition opportunities than shots in the paint.
