How can an old Joe Ingles playing better than any of our bench?
 
Someone stole a ball from a little girl? Assholes.

Adapt and overcome! Take the damn ball to the hoop then. Problem solved. People on here give the refs too much credit and blame.

I hear you, but no team should ever have 40 free throw attempts. That's controlling the game too much. You have to let the players play.

Watched him last night vs the Celtics. 38-4-4. He was playing very well. He deserves the conversation.

Look at his statline and compare it to other guards in the west. There's no conversation to be had

Maybe, if 5 games turns into 20. But he had a pretty bad first 30 games

* he has the worst PER of his career as a starter. He ranks 68th among 'qualified' players (75% of games) and 116th among all players
* he's the team's PG but ranks 35th in assist rate (qualified players); 52nd among all players
* he's 20th in FGA but 155th in TS% among qualified players and 316th among all players...wow
* among qualified players he's 109th in winshares/48 and 47th in BPM

volume scoring does get attention and he's a volume scorer because he's a volume shooter. Arguably, Simons has better numbers. And, the Pelicans are starting to lose a lot of games because they are past their home-heavy stretch (17-6 at home). They have lost 7 of their last 9 on the road

Now, there may be an an injury opening with Booker out until at least the first of February. Still, that leaves Curry (who is back), Doncic, Morant, Dame, SGA, Fox (check his numbers), PG13/Kawhi, Anthony Edwards. And of course, if Booker does come back a couple of weeks before the game, he'll be in
 
Players definitely ahead of CJ:

Curry
Doncic
Ja
SGA

That’s it. Then you have Dame, Fox, Simons, Klay, and PG13 competing with CJ for 2 spots probably.

Or take advantage of it. Key is to acknowledge the situation and use it to your advantage. Alway be aware of how the game is being called. Hoops 101.

I get that. If your getting to the line, go for it. But, again no team should have that many FT attempts. That's just ridiculous.
