Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson: Allen Iverson & Brandon Ingram as scorers have similarities especially when they’re angry, Pelicans coach Willie Green tells me. FULL QUOTE: “Oh for sure. There ARE some similarities with AI and BI. Number one, they have a knack for scoring in all different kinds of ways — they can shoot the ball, they can attack the basket, they can score in the midrange, they can get to the free throw line and with B.I., it’s funny you say that because Allen was one of his favorite players growing up. So, you can see some similarities there; obviously AI is a Hall of Famer, but Brandon is an INCREDIBLE scorer; he can give you buckets like you said in a ton of different ways. It was really fun to watch tonight, just beautiful basketball by our team.” -via Twitter / December 14, 2023
Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson: On why there was so much friction is between Mike D’Antoni and other players around the league… Tim Thomas: Oh I don’t know… I mean, I had a great relationship with him and I just think with my game and my skill set I could fit in anywhere, right? So many other guys that you might be talking about might’ve had trouble based off of their skill set and not being able to flourish in that type of offense but, with his offense if you could handle the ball, shoot the ball and run the floor? You should be fine, right? You should be fine. But I don’t know. I just had a great relationship with most of my coaches. The only one that I had a headache with was Larry Brown and come to find out later, he just never really liked rookies, you know? So that was basically the problem with myself and Larry Hughes not being able to help Allen Iverson out in Philly. -via Youtube / December 12, 2023
