He's actually worse than Payton on offense, for all his faults at least Payton will take the corner three if it's open and spaces to the corner or wings. Simmons when he's off the ball will just go to the dunkers spot, doesn't matter who is there, it would be the same exact thing that happened to the Sixers last year. You'd see Mitch, Randle and Simmons all within 5 feet of the rim, just like how Horford, Embiid and Simmons were, except we don't have an Embiid type of offensive talent.


I'd trade Mitch after I traded Payton and R(no)J and Randle.

Because....wait for it.....

Spoiler:
RIM RUNNER!



I'd rather have Mitch than Simmons at this point, I know what Mitch is and he's not locked into a 5 year $170 million deal. The only way for Simmons to be really effective on offense is to play him at C, and build around him like he's a rim runner. He could probably be a supercharged Bam on offense, but he doesn't give you that type of rim protection.


Excellent. Saves the need for a C after I trade Mitch, in my super unrealistic trade scenarios. :D

If Simmons AND Maxey are on the table that easily beats what the Nets can offer IMO

Houston is just dumb and is the same team that dumped all it's assets for Russell Westbrook. Just because they want Simmons doesn't somehow make them smart. Trading Harden for Simmons is just another dumb move. If they decide to trade Simmons, what are they getting for him? A package like the Nets are offering for Harden? :lol:

They can easily take Levert and Allen and flip them for more picks to add to the boatload of picks from the Nets and it would trump any value Ben Simmons has but Houston is just dumb :lol:

I'm hoping talks with the Nets and Sixers fall through and Houston is forced to take pennies on the dollar for Harden from NYK =)

I think Philly will do whatever to hold onto Maxey. I don't see Thybulle as a sticking point, Doc barely plays him as it is and Morey has a history of being able to find 3 & D guys off the scrap heap.

I'd take Simmons, Maxey and Thybule over Lavert and Allen. Of course, picks in either scenario.

If the Nets spark the Knicks tonight best believe Dolan will intervene.
