Why NOBODY wants Brandon Ingram 😳

This whole situation seems to have blown up in everyone's face. BI thinks he's worth more than he is, Pels FO don't want to pay his demands and explore trade options. Trade market isn't what FO thinks it is, not due to trade value necessarily, but contract value.

So now you have a team not wanting to pay a player max value and also no other teams willing to pay that value along with trade compensation. It's easy to say BI lost in this sitiation by pushing this but it doesn't feel that way.

It's starting to look more and more like BI is gonna play next season in contract year mode. Both he and the org knowing full well how they feel about the other.
