I disagree, If you sign him to a max then that contract makes him harder to trade like LaVine Plus if you wait till the all-star break in the west your season may just be a wash. Plus with BI's injury history he could go down and not be tradeable. Get what you can within reason and build around Z with pieces that actually fit , because Z+CJ+BI don't work
BI is one of the only superstars we have ever had that I feel like genuinely wants to be here and loves the city. I don’t think you trade that the fit might not be perfect with Zion but the pelicans don’t have the luxury of being picky for superstars imo.
It’s called greed and shortsightedness Also not taking into account that Brandon only has to stay there for 1 season before walking. Hope he joins Embiid, Wembenyama or Anthony Davis as a free agent so he can finally have a naturally fitting player next to him. Tatum and PG has Jaylen and Kawhi. Anthony Edwards has KAT. If I was BI, I’d go with Wembenyama.
If we are trading BI at the deadline next season, that would mean we are under-achieving. Don't wait until then to make a move. Add picks to Ingram and get the best player we can.
I personally think giving Brandon Ingram a max contract would be a huge mistake. The Bulls gave Zach LaVine a max deal and now they can’t move him because of it.
People have to look at Ingram's behavior with the USA team last year. When he was with other top-tier players he didn't work hard, got benched and all of the sudden he had another one of his injuries or sickness and went away from the team. Something is not right.
You can’t give one GOOD reason to sign that man to $50MPY contract We’d set the franchise back AGAIN if we do that . They need to humble themselves, swallow their ego & cut their losses with him
@@taylor_m_237 yeah look man I’m not necessarily basing his projected career off all star appearances, and even if I was Bi has just one anyway. Duren is 20 years old and I’m going off the eye test. Don’t know if you watched much of him this year but he’s an absolute beast.
@@danelk7172It’s not like the West doesn’t have Lebron, Kawhi, and PG ahead of him. Hell, how about how he got snubbed one year because of Korea. Life isn’t as black and white as your projecting it to be.
Look boys, I listened to the Griff interview. He’s not moving any starters other than Val. We will add ancillary pieces through the draft and free agency. End of story.
Nah that's cap. Willie has always given rookies big minutes dys, hawk, herb all started their first season playing alot of minutes. It's just that willi le gives up on the rookies in the second half of the season. Cause he thinks they can't contribute cause they're inexperienced. Like with Hawk
What draft picks will the Pels use this year? I want to see them get a player that plays now. Lots of stash or hold draft picks from my understanding..
@@OuachitaMtnwho else then? They got a pf in Larry Nance playing center, Dyson Daniel's and Naji playing pf.. these are not guys that move any needle. Lauri is so I don't get why people are cool with mediocre players and trying to win with them
I see your point, but I can’t believe the Pels would give BI the “full” max. If it has incentives that allow him to earn the full max (similar to Zion’s deal) that’s different. BI has been good overall, but his play this season plus the injury history is reason for an offer less than the full max.
@bdtelford1 not elite but paired with Zion the duo would be elite. Look at the difference when Jose was in the game vs anyone else. All you need a true point along side Zion and the Pels best option was Jose so just imagine what a star caliber player could do
@@stevengiles1253 don’t see why. He’s played well enough to prove that he can help a team out and that this imbecile of a coach doesn’t know how to use him properly

I don't wanna sound like a Karen but these type of videos sounds like a middle aged man that trading his wife which is a diamond for cubic zirconia bc of a bad year of their marriage. Griff did say he was building a roster not trading for one. As a pelican fan first but as Ingram fan would we would have traded Brees
Definitely think we should trade him. I think Murray from Hawks would be a better fit. I like CJ but he should be traded for a veteran center that rim protects. Draft Ware. Murray, Herb, TM3, Zion and Center (Allen?) and bring back Naji we are good
Not sure about Murray…he may be a good fit, and not. Somewhat of a ball hog. Look at OKC. Their best player SGA doesn’t hog the ball. We need young, athletic TEAM players that can rotate and not miss a beat! I say move BI, CJ & Jonas. Get Duren & Jaylen Green & draft another young stud and we would be a true contender. Griff needs to have a come to Jesus meeting with Willie and tell him to play Hawk & other young talent What he did in the playoffs really sucked. Not again!
I don't know. Just because they sign him for more doesn't mean they'll find a team that will want to pay that to get him. What if we get stuck in a bloated contract we can't get out of? Would be better to trade him now and get what you can for him..
I think giving Ingram a max contract vs just using that money on a better player with. heart that can shoot...Ingram always disappears in big games. He got benched in the Olympics for a reason
Okay bro you’re lying. Ingram does not always disappear in big games. This is recency bias buddy. You know many games where he was the only one to show up in big games.
To be fair, Ingram does care. It's just that he is somewhat injury-prone, doesn't pair well with Zion, and disappears when defense was all over him in playoff. Pelicans need to see if he would be willing sign a "less than Max" extension.
Ingram definitely cares. I sit low enough to see his face during the games. Having a bad night is discouraging for him. I think he is too hard on himself. He needs to forget the last shot. Then turn off his frontal lobes and let his instincts and talent take control.
@@chrisflo24 Well, it goes both ways playing nice. If he does, Pelicans should trade him to the team that he likes. If not, trade him to Washington... lol.
Tell em kick rocks and get a player that can play a season without getting hurt. Because between him and Zion we have 0 dependable stars. That's just reality
disagree! Dyson has to be moved to make way for Jordan Hawkins. A package with Dyson, BI some picks should be able to get a good deal. A 3 team deal with ATL, Detroit and NO should get you Trae and Jalen Duren. Detroit needs vets and ATL needs picks and to drop salary
First of all for those that keep saying " hes not worth 50 mill a year " , plesse learn the difference between a max and super max deal. Bi doesnt qualify for 50 million a year. Thsts a super max only for guys that played 65 games while being a all nba 1st 2nd or 3rd team or being defensive player of the year. Sooo please stop saying that ...... with that said Dont trade him. Not yet. Move cj first. Zion and brandon play better with trey as the 3rd wheel. .... look i get ppl are pissed off about theplayoffs. Ya it was bad. But look we saw him dominatr in the playoffs before. Weve seen the proof. Weve also now seen him struggle in the playoffs coming after missing a month. Is it an excuse no but it obviously had an effect. I personally think this is gonna motivate him. He has owned up to it. He knows. Hes gonna put in the work . As i said id move cj in a heart beat. Idc how many regular season games he played well when in EVERY play in gsme and playoff game hes been trash. Hes never played well. Ever. Ingram has. Get a real pg to run the floor and itll open up a ton for everyone.
Now that dort exposed Ingram everyone is gonna do it to him...get in his space ..Pels would be smart to sign and trade him, only sign him if they can trade him. But a max deal breaker....he ain't that good
It only worked because refs allowed the physicality and BI was not 100% coming back from a kneee injury. BI has beat Dort many times prior to this series.
Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is insanity. It's Time to move BI... END OF DISCUSSION! If Pels keep him and sign him to a Max contract then that tells you they are not serious about competing for a Championship but merely swimming around in mediocrity.
Disagree completely. I would keep BI. Trade Zion now when he is viewed positively by the league. His game has not evolved and he is easily stopped by long teams that "build a wall". This league is leaning farther and farther into the 3 point shot. Zion is very good at what he does, but unless he expands his game he is very limiting. At the least get a damn point guard! Imagine how much more effective we would be if the guys got the ball in the right spot. Maybe we would stop dropping games in the 4th quarter instead of watching CJ dribble for 13 seconds and then throw up a contested 3, or watching Zion barrel into the lane and turn the ball over.
Big changes means trading Valanclunas big slow ass.BI ain't the problem with this team .you forget who carried this team when Zion was lagging on the Pels. Trey Murphy ain't who yall think he is. McCollum needs to go. Dyson ain't no help. The Pels need a center
I don't understand the CJ Hate. He played great all season and when Z goes put he is more localized on defense. Dude shot 43% rom deep on 9 a game. Not gonna replace that
I mean yea, the thing you’re referring to about extending Ingram and then trading him is called a “sign and trade.” It is a common NBA roster management tool. It is one way they could go, but the extension won’t happen until a trade deal is agreed upon with another team.

Yeah Z is the future let's trade our most consistent player outta the 2. . U mofo's forget Bi's knee injury?? He wasn't right but he had to play coz Z couldn't once again!
Zion has only himself to blame. Coming out requesting a trade would be worse for.him. this is a competitive team if he could control his weight/diet and exercise
He is not Lillard jake nobody gonna want him for 40 million 1 allstar game in 8 years no all nba watch when they sign him he's gonna be hurt all the time

Agree. The Bulls are now willing to give away Zach LaVine for nothing in a desperate salary dump.

It definitely came back with him.

What happen to Brockington ? Dude came out one game looking like Jordan for a out 5 min then never see him again what gives?
5:35 Why sell Ingram for picks instead of trading him and picks for a better player?
If you sign BI to a max extension then we would have to add picks for someone to take his bad contract.
There’s absolutely zero chance Detroit would give up duren alone for Ingram in my opinion, I would do that sooooo quickly duren has a higher ceiling
Not a chance has a higher ceiling. It's very difficult for big men to be all stars.

Trade BI for a good point guard. CJ has either to go to the bench for 15 min max or trade him too.
Move cj to the 2 spot and trey to the wing.
I see your point, but I can’t believe the Pels would give BI the “full” max. If it has incentives that allow him to earn the full max (similar to Zion’s deal) that’s different. BI has been good overall, but his play this season plus the injury history is reason for an offer less than the full max.
I'm not with this "offer him the max" plan at all. Like I get it, but no thanks
He's had enough time to prove he can be an elite level player and still hasn't shown it. Pelicans need to trade him for Murray, Mitchell, or Trae.
You think Murray or Trae are elite?
Trae has shown an ability to take over games and think Murray is on the come up
I say Murray or Mitchell or J Green…don’t care for Murray. His teammates don’t like him…that tells you a lot!
@bdtelford1 not elite but paired with Zion the duo would be elite. Look at the difference when Jose was in the game vs anyone else. All you need a true point along side Zion and the Pels best option was Jose so just imagine what a star caliber player could do
Brandon Ingram wants out so why would the Pelicans give him the max deal
He’s just saying to increase his trade value for other teams but giving him the max could also scare off teams too. I say trade him asap
Everydayer here Jake. I think it would be a cool show idea to go through the top Pelicans trade ideas on Fanspo and give us your thoughts.

What does an upgrade at center look like? Especially if just putting Trey in the starting lineup with CJ Z & BI.
Without moving Bi Cj or Z?
Upgrade is like Isiah Harte stein.
Your are going a have to trade value to get an actual better center than Val
Should, shouldn’t. They probably give him a new contract and focus on the center and a rotational point guard to add to the roster for next season.
Definitely think we should trade him. I think Murray from Hawks would be a better fit. I like CJ but he should be traded for a veteran center that rim protects. Draft Ware. Murray, Herb, TM3, Zion and Center (Allen?) and bring back Naji we are good
