Holy Cow! I don't know where to start. That means you think Dorian Finney-Smith or Ben Simmons have more value than Jaden Hardy?!
Have you ever watched a minute of Dallas Mavericks basketball. First, Ben Simmons is a negative asset. He has a 6-10 240 lb body and his head is orbiting somewhere around Pluto. He's only played 42 games the past 2 seasons. He's like Chuck Knoblauch. He has the yips. Too scared to attempt an open 3 point shot or even to attempt to dunk a basketball from 2 feet away. Ben Simmons has no value on the trade market. If Nets attempted to trade Simmons independently, it would take multiple picks to entice another team to accept Simmons. Facts.
Hardy is much more valuable than DFS. I would go on to discuss this, but it'll just be a waste of time. All I'll say is how original. A fan who overvalues his team's players.
Scoring guards are a dime a dozen in today's league. It is much harder to find a player with Ben's skillset than Hardy. We already know what Ben is capable of and if he comes back to be somewhat near his rookie form, then this deal is highway robbery.
It is you that is overvaluing your team's players. There is nothing that Hardy has done to prove that he is a better prospect than Cam Thomas
Lol cool. Keep Simmons. No one wants Ben.
If ya'll knew how to evaluate the players & the picks, then you'd be able to come back with a counter offer that you did think was fair. I'm not going to get one of those. You don't know where the market is for your players. You over value them. I also don't hear anyone here having an intelligent discussion about the value of future draft picks.
Neutral third party here, fan of neither and that trade is straight garbage.
Good only for DAL and it’s not close.
Simmons is a distressed asset I’d like my team to grab at a discount but even that doesn’t come close to balancing the deal.
Turrible.
