I agree that Zion and Ingram should be the "primary" scorers. However, I just can't agree with Jrue shouldn't have the green light to initiate and be a primary offensive weapon.

In our last 5 games, before last night, which we were 4-1, Jrue was averaging 20.8 points on 51% fg and 48% 3pfg, 11 assists, and 3.4 turnovers. He was the main offensive catalyst in two of our four wins.

If there is anything to fault him on last night, it was missing the layup on the baseline, missing the open 3 when we were up 3, and not getting a goaltending call. He was not without other faults last night but until BI can be more consistent as a playmaker and an initiator, Jrue has to be the third main cog on offense. He had also just had his best stretch of the season.
