Oh fuck off already. Glad to see my boy Ingram balling, though. If only he didn't pick up those early fouls.
Ingram averaging 21ppg on 55% shooting, 5 boards, 3 assists in 13 games since Lonzo got injured.

I know that people love to blame the kids as to why Lebron might not make the playoffs this year, but if you look closely, and watch the games, it's the other veterans that have been wildly inconsistent. Especially in the last 15 games. But yet nobody wants to point a finger at them.
if anything Lebron should be pointing a finger at them.
And ya know. Something else to be said, we saw the defensive effort against the Rockets, Lebron, Mcgee, Rondo finally showed up again on the defensive end. (Kuzma too for that matter)
There is absolutely no reason we should have gone from 6th best defense in the league in mid-January, and then being the worst defense in the league since Lonzo went out.
Lebron not giving two shits on the defensive end in games against mediocre teams is a major part of that. Rondo can be blamed for the same thing. There’s absolutely no excuse for allowing teams like the Hawks and Pelicans to score so many points, for all these losses against shit teams after beating good teams. Our veterans need to lead by example on the defensive side. Walton needs to get his head out of his ass too and fix that side of ball. The lack of effort from our veteran leaders on defense is disgusting.
