re: Ingram is not a max player

Ingram is not a max player

He was also on a #1 seeded team with prime D Rose. Ingram had a promising start until Lebum went to LA and changed everything. They both got to the all-star game in their 5th year as well. At 24 Butler led his team to a 4th seed with Rose out, they got gentleman swept in the 1st. I could see BI doing that if we had a veteran coach capable of a 50 win 1st seed team, and a roster to match.

New York would have given him a max in a heartbeat.

With Randle already on a max deal?
Eh I doubt it

They weren't good fully healthy. If James thought Ingram was a star or max player, he would have never moved him. He would have just waited for David to bolt.
Lol they were battling for a top 4 seed in the West when James hurt his pussy. So again, what the frick are you talking about?

as fans it galls to see a guy like ingram considered a max anything.
hes not a great two way. or even known as a two way at all like say brooks of Memphis who got only 1 vote for Dpoy. 15 guys got a vote or three.
not ingram.
hes not great in clutch 2 minutes.
hes a good shooter. nothing much else.
if that's worth max it hurts to cut the check.
fwiw i saw a trade proposal yesterday had ingram worth 3 good memphis guys and 3 #1 picks (two memphis and one back from pels deal) did not get jjj not brooks and not morant.
some writer sees ingram worth a ton. or its just click bait.

He’s more than just a shooter.
He’s top 15 in ppg in the league, and every one above and the 5 players below him are all max players(or will be when eligible) besides Derozan, who is having a career year so far but still makes right around what BI makes this year because of vet scale.
BI complaining comes down to needing a lot of perfect being the mortal enemy of the good energy.

We spent years hating on Jrue for not being CP3. We eventually accepted and appreciated who he was and now we miss him. The problem was never with Jrue, it was the other holes in the roster. The same is true with Ingram.
I really hope they find a way to get a lead guard so we can start focusing on what Zion and Ingram can do instead of what they can’t do.

manifest your vision.
look at tankAThon.
any pg strike your fancy?
how about a deal?
jv for a two way pg with not too much wear on tires.
jv defense PnR says "not on wcf champ".

Bump after that completely disinterested game from Ingram. He looks checked out.

On this team of G-Leaguers, BI is a marked man. PERIOD!!!

he really does. He's looked disinterested the last 2 games.
I watched the first 8 minutes of the game on Saturday and turned it off b/c of what i saw from him. Didnt watch last night as i was busy watching a team that actually gives a shite in LSU, but watched the extended highlights and i said to myself once i got near the end of it "i've seen BI make 1 shot in these highlights". Check the box score and looks like he had a pathetic outing, again.
Can't really blame him too much. He's human, and i'm sure he's very frustrated. Still expect better from him, but he needs to snap out of it b/c when you are a max contract guy, you can't give these kind of efforts.

Why does BI not get more heat for getting paid and becoming content?
I feel like you used to constantly hear stories about staff having to unlock the gym for him at like midnight because he wanted to get shots in. Not anymore.

Not sure if putting more "heat" from fans is going to produce any positive impact on him or the team.
Posted on 11/23/21 at 11:28 am to TotesMcGotes
I don't give him a pass for being a max player and being frustrated.
Look at our line up last night, 4 players of the 12 that played would get minutes on a playoff contender.
Ingram
Valanciunas
Hart
Jones
And that 4th one is pushing it.
We are a bad team.
We are a thin team.
We are down a starting PG and PF on a team where there's no backup that is worth a damn. This team somehow went from asset-filled to nothing, very...very quick.

Ingram has looked checked out and uninterested the last few games. I'm getting worried he will ask for a trade.

That’s no excuse for BI to just absolutely suck.
Beal was second in the running for a scoring title last year and he was playing those games with a bunch of junk, too.
If he’s injured, say he’s injured. Otherwise, he needs to be substantially better.

Be honest, wouldn't you? BI is playing with less talent than 'That's All Folk's' ever played with.

BI is certainly a reason we’re 3-14.
