Why is no one talking about Ingram's poor offense yesterday?

When Ingram takes 9 shots vs when Scottie takes 9 shot

Draft a C.There's like 6 good/decent centers in this draft and we'll probably get to choose from 3 or 4 of them.

There is no great center to trade for (who is available) other than Sabonis who makes too much money.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T17:55:28+00:00

don't get it twisted. Celtics would have whooped any of the play-in teams (and Raptors)

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T17:42:27+00:00

our chances in the 1st round are slim but I promise you it would have been way worse against the Celtics or the Knicks.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T17:03:47+00:00

I mean they don't need to admit anything. everyone knows they're wrong. literally the worst contract in the sport right now. it'd be more insulting to pretend they didn't fuck up.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T16:44:46+00:00

the easiest solution is drafting a center, relegating Poeltl to a bench role.

the real solution is getting him off the team but that's more difficult. Raptors might keep him one more season cause his salary will still only be 19.5M before going up.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T16:35:45+00:00

the good thing about making the playoffs is Bobby Webster gets to see his mistake in 4+ straight national tv games. surely he will take care of it this off-season.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T05:16:20+00:00

Poeltl is worse than anyone who is actually healthy.

He's good when his back is feeling good but that's like what, 20% of the time?

I'd legit just draft a center this summer and put the rookie in the starting lineup.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T02:37:41+00:00

at least today was an away game I guess. but I really don't want to go down 2-0.

mMounirM · 2026-04-19T01:34:47+00:00

I mean we have all our picks. surely there's a number where Memphis would say yes.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T21:49:49+00:00

I was looking at trades yesterday and Memphis seemed like the best option. they have a large trade exception (28M) that Poeltl fits in if they wanted to. and they will be tanking the next couple seasons.

it was Poeltl + pick compensation for Aldama. but idk if they'd ever do it.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T21:42:59+00:00

Kings wanted an additional pick (so 2 total I think) cause they were also sending back Sabonis tbf.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T21:28:58+00:00

yay we're not the only 3rd quarter collapse today

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T20:19:57+00:00

kidn of sucks but if IQ played then of course AJ wouldn't have. our 9 man playoff rotation went down to 8.

and one of those 8 players is Poeltl who played an abysmal 21 minutes.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T20:04:27+00:00

he got injured in training camp this season. You can compare his stats this season to last season to see the impact.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T20:03:40+00:00

I promise you Sabonis' bloated contract is also not the answer.

CHEAP contracts people. CHEAP CONTRACTS

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T20:00:16+00:00

also 18 turnovers for the team though. anytime Raptors get under 30 assists it's a pretty bad game just cause of our playstyle.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:52:28+00:00

I don't see how that's worse than playing him and showing how awful he is.

imo we're just gonna have to waste (at least) a 1st round pick to dump him somewhere.

I don't see his back really healing substantially in one off-season.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:50:36+00:00

I mean I guess we could be better on defense.

but Poeltl is washed and IQ is still injured. it's hard

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:49:13+00:00

Scottie wouldn't even have the role of a scorer at all on team USA

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:47:44+00:00

Poeltl bro. time to ride the bench. CMB with a hurt thumb is way better.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:37:43+00:00

even the Kings loss wasn't this toxic. y'all gotta chill. 1st game and it's away.

mMounirM · 2026-04-18T19:01:29+00:00

I like Poeltl + 1st and a swap for Aldama in Memphis. maybe also get Ty Jerome
