Ingles is basically the prototypical starter on this team. He has so many varied skills, is one of the best knock down shooters in the league, and a good defender. Everything about him screams glue-guy starter. Bringing him off the bench would be a JR Jazz level coaching decision. I'd rather start Donovan at PG and bring Rubio off the bench than move Ingles to the bench. The Jazz need another creator on offense, but the two obvious candidates for change would be Rubio or Favors. Both of those guys are not perfect fits for the modern game. Ingles is until he drops off as he ages.
In 8th grade I hit two threes in a row to start a game in a Jr. Jazz game... Came down the 3rd time and found myself open again and let it fly... just missed it. My coach called timeout and subbed me out for not throwing the ball into the post... Not even that dumb bastard would put Joe Ingles on the bench.
