The NBA Has Never Seen Him Like This Before



New Orleans Pelicans Brandon Ingram forward Brandon Ingram was supposed to be the best or one of the best players on Team USA Basketball during their time at the FIBA Basketball World Cup in 2023. That hasn’t happened. Why?

  1. Likewise, I think Booker and Beal are going to struggle, unless Booker converts to Nash and focuses on assists and team chemistry, we got two guys taking turns getting the ball and KD doing his thing

  2. This is so true , Bi not used to being a role player but that all team USA is , MJ only average 16 point , Kd is only player to average over 19 points for team USA for his career.

    Playing for team USA you will not be a superstar you are a role player , most time you really out there to play defense and put up about 8-12 points a game honestly .

  3. I'd like to see La Melo in the team over Brunson I'm the USAs FIBA style of pushing the ball

  4. Not too worried too much about it. Zion’s not a ball hog like Edwards and him and Bi both great shot creators they can be the best duo if healthy

  5. Ingram was always slow to adapt, even in his laker days people thought he was a bust because his game wasnt a go to guy game then, it took him being traded to the pelicans and zion always being injured for him to be good.

  6. Now I KNOW that Brandon Ingram is the ISSUE because u can tell Zion takes the air out the room and Brandon would get jealous: he sees himself as higher than.he really is and it.shows in this USA run. Ironic that HC is Steve Kerr as well lmao

  7. Positions define roles and whe you have a collection of great talent you need defined roles.

  8. Let's call it what it is. Brandon Ingram is in his feelings right now because he's not getting as many shot attempts as he expected to on the floor. He's used to the offense running through him from CJ and he's not giving the effort that the younger players are that are happy to be there. It's an ego thing. It's obvious watching the games when he's sluggishly running up and down the floor (especially on defense). Nobody here thinks Josh Hart is better than Ingram, there was a reason he was benched.

  9. They have B.I. playing 15 mins a game & have him playing like a ROLE PLAYER- He is not a role player that why they switched him with Josh Hart who is good at getting rebounds, defense & clean up thats not Ingram role –
    Thats why he played better off the bench where he is focal point but its only 15 mins –
    Nothing wrong WITH Ingram – Pelicans are not worried – he will go back to 29 ppg in the playoffs

  10. You can just tell how many people don’t watch Pels games from comments on socials lol. As long as Zion plays this season I ain’t worried about BI. Trey please be okay 🙏🏾🙏🏾

  11. I was with you until you said Zion is a better playmaker than Brandon Ingram.. that’s just false. Zion is a good passer in the way Shaq was, by collapsing the defense and kicking it out to the obvious open man.. Brandon Ingram actually create looks for players, and thread the needle at times. Anybody who watches the pelicans play every game knows this. It’s obvious.

  12. Lmao if you don’t think BI going back from this team USA god bless you… this just going make him hungrier. Team USA is not using BI correctly at all and that’s on coach Ker

  13. Brandon Ingram avg 28/6/6 post Allstar break but his value as a player is low? Y’all overreacting to this Fiba shit😂😂

  14. The FIBA games are a really bad indication of Brandon's game in the NBA – he plays an entirely different role. Why would he need to play this role for the Pels this season? What's changed that would cause him to fall to the bottom of the offensive pecking order?

  15. He still gonna ball next season but if your talented the role change shouldn't hurt this much. Look how good Carmelo was in international play and he's a iso player. Hopefully he learns from this

  16. Lol, analyse all you want. All i know is those 5 starter for usa will be eaten alive by serbian team . Kerr needs to adjust ASAP.

  17. You zion stan need to stop. [Point zion] works but its the main reason he miss a lot of games because its the reason he had to work a lot reason for him to be more prone in injury. If someone has to adjust it is zion. ( if you really watch every game it is very obvious )

  18. He’s gonna struggle? He’ll be completely fine, the only struggle will be no Murphy. All due respect to Zion, BI still willed the team into the playoffs just last year and averaged 28 a game in the playoffs. Zion or not, he always gets his buckets.
