    I play Ingram at SG and don't sweat it too much. Basketball is about matchups, not positions.

    He's done after 10 minutes. Won't keep his double digit streak going unfortunately.

    Sucks, but in limited minutes, he looked fantastic.

    We have something here with him.

    That full court, one handed pass on a dime was beautiful. He took it right to Kawhi and more than held his own in the extremely limited minutes he played. I loved it. This was the first time I looked at him and thought, "Oh he could be star actually". I'm of the mind that nobody is "unavailable" but Ingram is well on his way to that. I wouldn't trade him for anything short of a superstar in his prime. I certainly wouldn't throw him in to any Paul George or Jimmy Butler trades.

    I love taking credit for things, but I appealed to @Barnstable for the name change. It's above my pay grade.

    I totally dig it.
