Ingram Missed Dunks

[XMan]

Three straight games and three missed wide open dunks. What in the world is that all about? Does Ingram just panic when he goes up?

Just lay it in and get the two points. Play for the team.

He must have reallly weak or small hands because he loses it at the rim every time. Never seen a guy miss that many uncontested dunks in my life.

 

[TruPhan]

I'll take em. He has turned into a serviceable backup and good role player. His defense has been outstanding and he has become a contributor off the bench.

As far as the missed dunks go, I think you can chalk it up to nerves and limited offensive skill.

 

[RoyalGopher]

Just hit it off the backboard!!!

 

[XMan]

He has to be feeling terrible. Nothing worse than being that tall and missing a wide open dunk three games in a row. After the season he is probably going to get razzed pretty bad.

I hope he gets another chance in the second half and just hammers one down.

Does a hammered-down slam count more than two?

 

[zambam]

Well, he's also had at least 1 big made dunk in the past 2 games (haven't been able to watch most of this one)

[Gold Vision]

That is exactly what I picture every time he posts.

Ingram just got blocked by the rim, just SMH sometimes...

 

[KyGopherfan]

Poor guy...he has to have the worst hands in college bball. He's serviceable for sure, but kid needs to do nothing but layups....period.

Pretty fair likeness, DPO. But my eyes are not blue. You're right, my views on things are those of an earlier generation. Anyway, thanks for the chuckle.

He was a decent late pick-up and ended up filling a need. Lots wanted Carlos, which the gophers could have had if they wanted him.

Ingram is shooting a solid 50% on his dunk attempts....

 

[stocker08]

Every time he misses an uncontested dunk, I receive an uncontested facepalm. Three games in a row......i'm speechless.

 

[stocker08]

I can dunk better than him......and I can't dunk.

There is nothing more infuriating to me than a player missing a shot from a place that I would expect to make a shot from because he wants to make a big slam.
