Brandon Ingram’s social media post is more concerning than skipping workouts with the Pelicans



Brandon Ingram’s social media post is more concerning than skipping workouts with the Pelicans

Reports state that Brandon Ingram skipped voluntary workouts for the New Orleans Pelicans. But Jake Madison isn’t as concerned about that compared to Ingram’s recent social media posts. Those posts make Jake worry even more about the fit alongside Zion Williamson and Dejounte Murray. Plus, there is a clear path for how Ingram can get paid the most money after next season.

  1. Trade BI & CJ for Vooch &'Lavine. All four are players their teams.have been wanting to trade all off season

  2. Front office of pels and saints need to both be let go but they won't. Ms B just going thru the paces.

  3. Zion is the longest-tenured.

    I kind of disagree that we don't have lots of new additions. Our entire center room is new and DJ, the pg he wanted, is now here.

  4. His posts are cryptic because our local media members like Jake Madison are pushing to have him traded. No surprising news here.

  5. Ingram’s management needs to give him realistic feedback. The league has spoken loud and clear. A max contract isn’t in the cards. Becoming a contrarian may further erode his value around the league. The smart move is to play his role to the best of his ability. At this point that is the best way to enhance his image and value around the NBA.

  6. B.I Deserves every dollar he wants….. The pelican paid CJ and messed up the books….he better then Franz Wanger …….😂😂😂 Jake let's stop…. If the pelican take the heart from the team…. I would say it would be worst move since not paying ZO2 80M….. The office has created this chaos…..and they should allow him to play his contract out since u don't feel he worth that and if he is himself u gonna have to pay him….HE PUTTING MONEY ON HIMSELF BECAUSE HEALTHY HIM …… THEY WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN SWEPT…. And Murray is not the leader he just get to CONTROL CHAOS…. HE HAS EVERYTHING AROUND HIM TO WIN…. B.I AND ZION ARE ALL STARS …. COACH GREEN SAID HE GOT THE BEST DUO IN BASKETBALL…. I WOULD SAY HE RIGHT…. WHEN HEALTHY…. CAUSE U REALLY CANT STOP EITHER ONE….. B.I NEEDS TO PLAY P&R MORE WITH ZION …. IT WOULD MAKE BOTH OF THEY LIVES EASIER….. BUT LETS NOT FORGET HE CREATED MOST OF PELS Offense outside Z and CJ…… B.I doesn't have to change his play style… He just has to stay aggressive the whole game… And engaged on both sides…..Da Real Killa #14 THE PELICANS WILL WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP IF THEY KEEP THIS ROSTER …. BUT THEY WILL FAIL IF THEY TAKE AWAY WHO MADE ALL THESE PPL BELIEVE IN THE CITY AGAIN….. PLUS IF WE BEING TECHNICAL ABOUT ALL THIS THEY LOW BALLED HERB…. NBA ALL DEFENSIVE 1ST TEAM…. We really know them from Getting into playoff against Suns I need ppl to go understand who put the city on his back… We didn't see that version of B.I cause he was Hurt…. If I'm wrong …. Why would they be in a stalemate

  7. I have had enough with Brandon the sooner they get rid of him the better he seems like he is physically too fragile as well as being a poor leader. If his feelings are hurt, tough luck he makes a lot of money in any case I want him gone. Everyone have a good day.

  8. How is it some people are for ingram yet when trey starts in his place we start winning games? or that the starting 5 was a net negative… zion and bi dont fit! and im taking the better player to build around

  9. BI thinks he’s a max player when literally no one else does and with his unmanaged expectations you get stuff like this. You would think this summer would have been a reality check proving that no one sees him the way he sees himself but clearly that hasn’t changed his perspective in the slightest.

  10. The saints and pelicans are both making similar mistakes, unwilling to pay a worthy player because of prior personnel issues and both will outplay their respective contracts and it’ll be too late to resign them by then

  11. If Bi is aiming this at the Pelicans I don’t really get it. To a degree I understand he feels unappreciated but he needs to realise he has plenty of downfalls atm but the entire league doesn’t want him so idk how he’s gonna feel appreciated elsewhere rn

  12. People keep saying trade him well Pels try trade him no teams was willing to do so at that price.

  13. B. Ingram is not worth a max contract however the Pelicans have not put him or any other player that has ever been on the roster in a position to succeed.
    I kno, IV been a fan since Rex Chapman, the organizations first pick.

  14. We talking about all this like Willie green is gonna have the courage to stand up for the sake of the team from what we’ve seen in the past Willie green probably isn’t even aware of what’s going on

  15. Another crazy thing is Zion appears to be the most at peace during this whole thing while Brandon is being so disgruntled

  16. Jake you wrong it’s not fine we haven’t made it out the first round of the playoffs in years if everyone isn’t on board essentially nobody is

  17. It was a players Initiated work out. The same kind Zion skipped the last two years when ingram and other players hosted them. And Monday was his birthday which meant the past weekend was the weekend of his birthday. This mfer couldn’t wait to throw dirt on B.I. 😂

  18. Just make a trade for a center and go try to win a ship. If a good Ingram trade comes along do it, but otherwise let’s make this season count. Don’t make a trade to make a trade, it does require a Jarrett Allen, or a viable forward coming back in a deal

  19. BI sucks ain't expecting greatness on the court from him, neither expected professionalism outside from the court. 🤡 🤡

  20. Dear pelican YouTube family, when somebody post a comment in this section agreeing with Jake, go look at the profile and see what another videos they post comments on and you will see that they only post comment on this page. Now I’m no hater, this show is ok. But YouTube has endless options of videos about so many different things. But these people are agreeing with Jake don’t comment on any other videos on YouTube. If you can’t see what’s going on here then I don’t know what to tell you.

  21. One of the most annoying things in sports media is when folks get a guy who plays a certain way and says the answer to all their problems is for that guy to change. NO wants forward BI to play like a shooting guard. Chicago wants SG Lavine to play like a fwd. Westbrook went through the same thing. Do what you need to do to trade the guy for a someone who fits, or accept a wasted season. Stop putting the onus on a really good player who doesn’t fit your team to become a brand new player

  22. If anybody reads can someone tell me why Tre Murphy 3rd didn't get more 6th m.o.y. recognition?

    Did he start to many games or something like that because his numbers show he should've gotten more attention plus with Pelicans very good record last season.
