Why Nobody Wants Brandon Ingram
Спорт
Brandon Ingram was in trade rumors but the deal never happened. He’s still in New Orleans which is a problem for him and the team. This is a look at why BI’s reputation has taken a hit on the court and what his future looks like.

He carried the Pels when Zion was injured. Seemed like the ideal teammate, but it's hard to see guy comming back from this. Only winning a few playoff series as the main guy is going to erase this.

Develop? They failed for almost six years straight.
When you pay max for a star with no leadership skills, don't expect those skills just to show up one day, Pelicans. Even Kevin Durant never developed those. BI plays without passion, but the Pels have Zion, right? Right. He proved once again, although later in the season, that he cannot deal with injuries. His weight is not getting any better. Now they have a point guard who is on his third team. Still have no super stars, no leader on the floor, and they play out West. Ouch. We were all so eager to see Zion grow, but this has gone on for long enough. He has never been in shape after signing that first rookie contract. Good for him. He's won in life, but what a disappointment to miss out on what could have been.

Durant definitely developed his leadership skills. Revisionist history can be very misleading. Durant has proven his leadership skills, leading OKC to 50 wins and the 2 seed out West with no Westbrook for around 60 games. Since then, his leadership in Brooklyn was great and that team looked scary good when healthy. Problem is, they were either not healthy, Kyrie was forced to sit for big stretches of the season for bogus reasons hurting their playoff seeding and chemistry and of course Harden being a complete space cadet. Now he's simply on the decline athletically. A decline accelerated by his acl injury which probably not NBA player has come back from to look even 80% as great as he did with that finished athleticism. Klay, for instance,went from all to barely starting quality. KD was a legit leader. The rest, you may have a solid point on.

All I know as a Pelicans fan, either Brandon Ingram or CJ McCollum or both has to leave the team. I'm sorry but you just have to make room for Trey Murphy to be in the starting lineup and setup his future contract. If do decide to keep B.I., then CJ has to go and vice versa Or...... Keep everyone on the team, let Ingram walk at the end of the season, and make the NBA pay for not willing to accept a trade from the Pelicans, and allow the Pelicans to have a starting lineup like this: G- Dejounte Murray G- Brandon Ingram SF-Herb Jones PF- Zion Williamson C- Y.Messi (Rookie) Bench 6th Man #1- C.J. McCollum (G) 6th Man #2- Trey Murphy (F/G) Role player#1-Jose Alvarado (PG) Role player #2- Jordan Hawkins (G/F) Prospect- Antonio Reeves (Rookie) (F/G) 11- Daniel Thesis C/F) 12- Jeremiah Robertson-Earl (F-C) Reserves 13-Matt Ryan (F/G) 14- Opened slot 15- Opened slot Note: I'm not counting two-way players.
Its also cuz of the upcoming draft, worse teams don't want a player that can help them get wins and then miss out on a top pick in a stacked draft
Hard to believe at this point but last year at this time Pels and Thunder were eye to eye.

Bro they still are
I think BI is just in a crappy situation in New Orleans. That organization has hitched its wagon to Zion, and I don’t think it will work out. Ingram should take what he can get and move on.
This seems more like the Pelicans needed a true point guard and they are using Brandon Ingram as a scapegoat
The new cba is good for the nba. Specially if the teams can use this as leverage against greedy agents. So many players are over paid and under worked. Being paid a ton of money just to throw bricks or warm the bench.😅

BI reminds me of Michael Beasley - insane potential and everyone thought he'd be a superstar in the league and somehow it never worked out. BI was supposed to be KD 2.0 and it never happened.

Michael Beasley just couldn’t stay outta his own way to be fair, guy was nice though.. but the whole bi being the next kd thing was more of a draft comparison.. how many guys get comparisons they never live up to? I mean he’s in the league lol … being the next kd ain’t something easy to do

As a NC native myself just like Ingram, I feel bad for him. I believe he still has it in him; he’ll possibly have a well needed comeback with his game.
Lmao the thumbnail 😂
3:15 shia funny asf love how he doesnt celebrate till the game ends
Whats up Casey 👋
Love the vids Casey
Trust me a lot of fans wish they had Ingram on their team
The issue could be simple. BI just has to let teams know he's fine with 35-40M/yr and he'll have a host of teams wanting him. He's not a max player. His ppg is in line with a max player, but like I. Thomas (formerly Boston) that number just doesn't mean anything by itself. And if BI would like to change that perspective, he should sign something like a 2yr - 80M deal, play defense like he's never done before, embrace the heck out of whatever city he's in and never act like he's looking to get out, and whenever the 2yr deal is over he'll get a max contract. Simple.

Thanks. I was wondering why he wasn't talked about much at all. I felt like he was best available. 2nd and even 3rd option money would be great for a player I think desire to be considered a 1. It's expect him to bet on himself and expect to win IF their dysfunctional team stays healthy.
The thumbnail picture is the killer!
He is holding himself back. He is a pothead.of course they won’t say it but go watch his interviews and he is always high. He is naturally good but he could be great if he could focus.

Won't find a bigger advocate for weed, than myself. That being said, you can creep up behind BI, and blind him with dental floss. Some players, like Bill Walton, needed it to play through anxiety. There's levels to it, and BI takes it too far. Off the court, who cares. Stoned stupid on the court, and there's an issue. Hate to admit it, but you're not wrong.

Ingram hasn’t played more than 64 games since his rookie season. Way too injury prone to be relied upon, especially at $35M a year.

If he is the fourth best player you have a great team. If he is the third best player you have a good team. If he is the best or second best you better have a very versatile group of players and a deep bench.
Players don’t talk about this much when the franchise bet on you and you let them down lol its a two way street
