Let's go LA!
I mean it kind works for a majority of lakers fans who just jump to whatever team is winning. Could have really used a GSW one

I don't even remember why I started stanning this bum ass franchise filled with nepotism and incompetence tbh.

When’s Adams’s bday?

Let's go LA!
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostFirst take mention CJ for Simmons? Eh, idk.I don't see why Portland would do that, at all tbh.
By World B. Flat Go To Postrealistically, who wants to trade for simmons? maybe nola or something.i can see the Cavs doing sexton/love for simmons in some form
I don't think it'll be tough for them to trade Simmons, really. I suspect any of the analytics-heavy front offices could easily talk themselves into it. (This definitely includes the Wolves, unfortunately.)
By n8 dogg Go To PostSimmons was FIRST in the draft? Whew
Winners of that draft look like Brown in 3rd, Murray in 7th or Sabonis in 11th
edit as i type: Siakam in 27th and he’s an NBA champ what a time to be alive
edit after i type: caruso undrafted even more time to be alive
Very clearly Ingram at #2
By rodeoclown Go To PostI don't think it'll be tough for them to trade Simmons, really. I suspect any of the analytics-heavy front offices could easily talk themselves into it. (This definitely includes the Wolves, unfortunately.)I can see Orlando leaping at the chance too tbh
By World B. Flat Go To Postrealistically, who wants to trade for simmons? maybe nola or something.
A $177M contract (+15% kicker) for an "all star" who has 0 ability to shoot. This might be the most untradeable contract of all time. Shit, I'll go as far as to say the worst contract of all time. Dude didn't deserve a penny more than $80M-100M in today's market.
Show me any other contract, and I'll show you a player who's made a wide open dunk.
Probably other teams too. Chicago could trade LaVine and some other stuff if they felt he was going to walk in free agency.
By DY_nasty Go To PostI can see Orlando leaping at the chance too tbh
Fultz just started to rehab his career. He doesn't need Basura Ben to trigger some sort of PTSD, contaminate, and ruin it all again.
contract is trash regardless of how analytics-driven your FO is
philly shoulda added minimum shot attempts clauses and shit.

"$250 limited edition kicks...but marketed exclusively for women" someone got an MBA for this and I'm pressed.
Batum was worse. Kevin Love only plays when he feels like it and shits on his teammates and coaches. Blake Griffin basically committed Fraud. Siakam and Deangelo Russell can't even keep up the charade. Kristaps is definitively damaged goods. Westbrook flamed out first and pretty much quits mid playoff games these days. Etc
Like, don't get me wrong, Ben ain't it. But there are plenty of players in the league that are cashing out without even showing up in the regular season to even get hopes up in the first place.
The Philly roster is so poorly put together and coached that Ben can't even do what he *is* good at due to their lack of movement (which comes directly from reliance on Embiid) and lack of guys who know how to move organically.

By World B. Flat Go To Postcontract is trash regardless of how analytics-driven your FO isPeople say this all the time, but there's no contract that can't be moved. Some teams (and there will be several suitors, I bet) will tell themselves that Simmons is only 24 and does all sorts of awesome things and try to trade for him.
philly shoulda added minimum shot attempts clauses and shit.
maybe we're looking at ben wrong. maybe he's the new dennis rodman, even if rodman attempted and made more 3s than ben
30 mil for dennis rodman sounds expensive tho. then again maybe not.

You missed the joke, guv.
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostYou missed the joke, guv.it wasn't that good of a joke :/
I already convinced myself Portland is getting Simmons or some Simmons to GSW, Draymond to Portland swap
I also think Ben can thrive with the Sixers but these playoffs showed that they'd rather be a culture of blame and fingerpointing. Embiid's leadership skills in how he went about his press conferences is suspect and Doc Rivers is Doc Rivers.
By knux-future Go To PostI just want him gone at this point.sixers realgm is beyond done with him lol.
Team USA just locked in Bam as well.
Dame
Beal
Tatum
KD / Dray
Bam
They fielding a better roster than I thought they'd be able to.

By reilo Go To PostI also think Ben can thrive with the Sixers but these playoffs showed that they'd rather be a culture of blame and fingerpointing. Embiid's leadership skills in how he went about his press conferences is suspect and Doc Rivers is Doc Rivers.Embiid has changed a lot of his game for Ben. And he's out here playing hurt while Ben is too shook to get fouled. Main reason Embiid turns the ball over so much is because he's forced to create from 20ft out combined with the fact that Ben's man just waiting to cheat over for a free double team.
If anything, Embiid should've me or him'd Ben two years ago.
By post-DiPro Go To PostLeBron should get his boy Simmons on the Lakers.
Sign n trade for Dennis + kuzma. It’s not like those dudes made any shots in the playoffs
By post-DiPro Go To PostLeBron should get his boy Simmons on the Lakers.this might actually be a thing considering rich paul runs the franchise
we just don't have assets thank allah

did you see him post-game? ben is fucking ass cheeks. no accountability at all, pretty much 'fuck you pay me'.

USA Basketball can't keep getting away with this.
Teams have a lot of money tied up in players who already have a fuckton of miles put on their bodies in a short amount of time.
You could surround Ben with Steph Curry, Devin Booker, Kevin Durant and Jokic and they still wouldn’t make a conference finals
this dipshit who was on vh1's remember the 90s shit from like 2007 is doing 'actually you hate black wealth if you don't want big markets in the finals every year'
