Brooklyn can trade KD anywhere but they are not just going to trade him anywhere, read that again

This is how we got stuck with Avery Bradley and Mo Harkless.

Ain't gonna lie Ben is probably better lol The world is down on him because he doesn't shoot(sounds like a certain player on this roster) but he's a proven star. Losing Bam and netting those 2 would be a steal if it was on the table lol


Ben Simmons solely gets the benefit of extra hype due to being a top pick. Ben is a Bam Adebayo that is (1) weaker; (2) shorter wingspan; (3) more of a 1-4 defender than the 1-5 defender that Bam is; (4) has no discernable offensive ability if he's not ball dominant (and your team isn't winning sh*t if Ben is the main option).

So you're either forcing a point Winslow scenario to cater to Ben Simmons on offense or having a subpar screener that doesn't know how to play off ball as a big man or shoot.

You're showing your ass on this

EDIT: And that's not even getting into the attitude difference (both internally with team and externally around the NBA), mental health issues, or the fact that Simmons seems to have a degenerative back issue

A month. And it will stall every free agent. And 10 more teams will be added in before midnight.

THIS

I hope we don't fall sleep and lose on potential free agents waiting for KD and Brooklyn to make a decision... This could take a while and I don't see Brooklyn trading KD to us for Tyler Herro and spare parts... Move on with your original plan and lest continue to build

I think this ESPN analyst are overrating KD ( not the player but the situation)

No way PHX gives up Devin Booker for 34 years old KD..

If Ben would exclusively play the 5, that’d be kinda fire

Anyone and everything not named Jimmy and Bam should be on the table for a KD pursuit. That’s a whale.

Picks, swaps, Herro etc.

In todays NBA, he honestly could. Point 5.

Miami is going to be prioritizing a scenario where we don't give Bam.
