    The the 4 times we will have played the Spurs this year (after Friday's) game Ingram, our best defender to put on Derozan will have played less than a quarter against them. 16 total quarters. No wonder Demar has great games against us.... Kuz did a great job all things considering though.

    He is either doing 1 of 3 things: A.) Getting suspended B.) Clanking mid-range jumpers/, C.) Getting injured.

    Fantastic season so far, BI. Goodness...

    thing I dont like BI is he takes a very long time to get his game back when he's out due to injuries....I thought he was finally starting to adjust to playing with James and then becoming the true #1 when James came off the floor, this is unfortunate but now we get to see Hart at the starting 2, let see if what we been clamoring for really works

    he should consider watching Ariza tapes while recovering...it's obvious his type of play doesn't fit with Lebron...attempt to be a 3&D player when he comes back and maybe have the impact of Siakam

    So he's out next 2 games....my guess is he's going to be out a lot longer than anybody expects because he's a slow healer and Lakers may not wanna rush him back if we're playin well...

    My guess is he's out until January. It always starts out "day to day" and then quickly becomes 2 fricking months with Lakers and their injuries

    BI is going to be a big part of our championship season. He is much more valuable than being given credit for.

    Definitely Luka and it's not even close. Looks like he's gonna be a superstar very soon (but he sucks against the Lakers)

    Luka is so skilled he’s just so much fun to watch. He’s soft though and needs to get rid of that Euro body. Boy is like the stay puft marshmallow man. And he is Kuz-esque on D.

    I agree. I feel the criticism in this thread is a bit unfair. He's forced to make the biggest adjustment playing a similar role to Lebron.

    Speaking of Lebron, he'll become a full-time PF as he ages. We'd be hard-pressed to find a better wing than Ingram as he fills into his frame and develops into an elite wing in a couple of years.

    So he's out for another 3 games minimum.

    Good news is, he'll avoid another suspension by missing the Rox game.

    Lakers, where re-evaluated in a week = out for 3 weeks minimum. See you in 2019 BI.

    You sure?

    Well I guess you and DeRozan have something in common.

    Only his length on defense is what I'm missing. But Josh is doing his thing with the starters, no doubt

    I do miss his defense and mismatch problem for opposing teams.

    Oh boy...here we go...

    starts out with "not that serious"...then becomes "out for 2 games" then "re-evaluated after 1 week"...then "Ingram still 2 weeks away from returning"...and then finally..."Ingram out for the rest of the year"...

    Lakers injuries be like...
