The Los Angeles Lakers and Philadelphia 76ers played a thriller last night at Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia, PA. Sixers big man Joel Embiid flashed a magnificent 46 point and 15 rebound outing for Philadelphia.

Ultimately, the night belonged to Lakers forward Brandon Ingram who drilled a game winner with 3 seconds left, courtesy of a crisp pass by his  Lakers teammate, Lonzo Ball.

It was a joy to see Brandon Ingram nail one of the biggest shots of his young career. He grew up liking Kobe Bryant. “My impression of Kobe is just his drive,” Ingram once told me.

Though Ingram was born in 1997, a year after The Mamba’s rookie year, he has fond memories of Bryant and the Lakers last championship run. “Everyone talks about how he works out, his work ethic, and that’s something that I eventually want to get to,” he said.

“Of course, and just want to talk with him and try to learn what he did to try to be what he is today.”

Prior to last night’s game I discussed both teams with “Bud and the Manchild” while also navigating through the rest of the NBA’s landscape. Click here to listen.

The Orlando Magic’s Jonathan Isaac Chatted With RESPECT Magazine’s Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson On Scoop B Radio. Press Play Below To Listen.

If Jonathan Isaac was a car, he’d be an Escalade with Lamborghini doors.

The Orlando Magic rookie’s got point guard speed, shooting guard scoring ability meshed with power forward height and center blocking ability.

The comparisons are endless: the Golden State Warriors’ Kevin Durant, New Orleans Pelicans’ Anthony Davis and the Los Angeles Lakers’ Brandon Ingram.  

Does Isaac sees the Ingram comparisons? “I do,” Jonathan Isaac told me on Scoop B Radio.

“You know, we’re both super long, super athletic and able to handle the ball and shoot it.”

Isaac has the defensive versatility to check at least four positions, maybe even stealing some minutes at the 5 once he fills out.

He has a preference though.

“Well, I think I enjoy guarding the perimeter more just because it’s an unconventional thing,” said Isaac.

“So when I switch off to  a point guard or two guard I take pride in it.”
