Ingram has been playing well shotmaking wise lately

The problem is killing the offensive flow. It's great down the stretch when you need tough buckets but just giving him the ball and letting him work in iso does not work for 48 minutes. He's not efficient enough for that, and that's scoring as well as passing/turnover efficiency.

The other problem is that it doesn't allow other players to get in the rhythm of the game. When BI is cooking, then his iso play is fine, but that can't be our offense for an entire game. That's why he needs to buy in to Willie's offense.

That was essentially the offense with Zion too though, except he was more efficient and allowed others to get open for easy shots. First time we played the Raptors Zion went ham and Trey hit like 7 threes and we won by 30.

I love BI, besides Jrue he’s my favorite Pel ever, and I think he is easily a top 20 player in the NBA, but either he’s killing the offense or Willie’s game plan is putting him, and the team, not in a position to win. Considering the offense was basically the same just a different person in iso I’m thinking that’s on Willie.

In the recent 3 game win streak BI averaged 6 assists and didn’t play in one game where we scored 136. In the 4 games after he had 1 twice, 3 once, and 8 against the Cavs. It’s clear that when we move the ball we are more successful. Now the question is why does the ball stop with BI and how do we fix it.
