Interesting nugget so far OKC is 0-6 when Bestbrook fails to get a trip dub, 4-0 when he does...keep stat padding Russ.
 
Plays like it are wonderful to see, but Ingram’s shot chart doubles as a frustrating development that makes life harder than it has to be for his spacing-starved teammates. For every three he attempts, he also launches 2.5 mid-range jumpers. That’s an ugly ratio for a prospect who shot over 40 percent beyond the arc at Duke.

His three-point rate is half of what it was as a rookie, down so low it’s only above two percent of wings in the entire league. Why? Heading into Thursday’s game against the Boston Celtics, he canned an impressive 39 percent of them. It’s too early to worry about all this, and signs of life found elsewhere in Ingram’s game are critical for the development of the entire Los Angeles Lakers organization. Still, he needs to turn a few of those long twos into three-point tries sooner rather than later. There’s no reason for him not to.

Huh. Maybe this guy doesn’t know how much pressure it puts on the defense to operate at 20 feet.
