See I agree with you to an extent. But it hasn't even been 8 months since NOP fans were questioning whether Ingram and Zion could even fit together. Since Zion would always be iced out in the 4th and Adams would be camping in the lane.
Griffin doubled down on his center philosophy trading and extending JV for Adams. Because of all the smoke that the Pelicans weren't sold on Ingram and Zions long term fit, and the fact that NOP GM literally just traded Lonzo for a bucket of spare parts, I think Ingram can be had for a lot less than we think.
NOP seemed to be interested in THJ last summer at a higher price. So I assume they'd still be interested in him on a discount. Add in DFS and JB+Picks the Mavs package seems pretty interesting to me at least.
