My Dinner With Andre 5,805 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Weird. Everyone focuses on Ingles' shooting. I guess he brings it upon himself with his comments, but the 4+ assists per game and 1.6 steals this year are pretty sweet too. Even the 4 and a half boards work.

StifleTower2 2,525 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 He may have called himself the best shooter but that’s objective true given that he led the league in 3 point shooting percentage when he said it. That’s like Drummond saying he’s the best rebounder in the league. Well, that’s objectively true so I wouldn’t hold it against him. Now his shot isn’t falling. That’s variance. It happens. His other counting stats will help him retain value until his shot falls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chud12 4,076 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I am convinced its just a slump as Jingling Joe has been one of the top shooters in the game for 2 years already. He is still contributing across the board so i am not worried. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EmbiidGOAT 139 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 His slumps are easy to deal with and usually don't last long at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flat_eric 362 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Y'all don't get Australian humour. That comment about him being the best shooter in the league was firmly tongue-in-cheek. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kamura 397 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Buy low if you can. This slump won't last long and even in the slump he had 2 triples and 3 steals. His floor is basically PJ Tucker's ceiling Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Combined with Jingles they shot 12 of 55 (or 21.8%) haha All confidence in Jingles to turn it around though Edited November 8, 2018 by DamoESP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrotherMouzone 36 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) 9 hours ago, StifleTower2 said: Simple variance. You mean the variance is random? Variance just refers to difference. The question is what is responsible for variance. Variance can be random or occur because of certain factors. This is not random. Random would be an occasional poor shooting effort surrounded by an occasional great shooting effort and a bunch of average ones. This is a stretch of 9 games in which he has one game that could be described as "decent" and 8 that are bad. The problem has been the lack of variance over the last 9 games. At this point, it is a trend. The question is for how long. And if it is due to something that can easily be fixed (e.g., focus, shot selection) or something that is more difficult to fix (e.g., opponents, teammates, game plan). I suspect he will be fine and that this is just a slump....but this isn't just a bad game or two. Edited November 8, 2018 by BrotherMouzone Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah....but all of the other stats are about what you would have expected from him, so it isn't like he's vastly overachieving in other categories to make up for the lack of scoring over the last 9 games. He's been fine for the spot where most probably drafted him....but he hasn't amounted to the "steal" that people anticipated before the season. I think it is fine to have a little concern and be a bit aggravated over his performance. Any talk about dropping him is ridiculous, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorLove 312 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I think he'll move back to "draft day steal" status when his shot starts falling again. He's a career 44% shooter so he'll get it fixed soon enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One bad move from a panicky owner doesn't make a league non competitive Never understood that narrative on this board 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even in 2 of those 3 bad games he had 6 assist, 2+ steals, and 1-2 3's. RIP to that guy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If your league isn’t “competitive” then that means the other person is better than you at fantasy and real life probably too . I personally don’t want to play in competitive leagues. If I had my preference I’d rather play in high buy-in leagues with absolutely ****ful owners. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
