In fairness, you act like you're the GM of the Sixers with how you talk up Simmons, as if you, personally, are looking to trade him. You're very defensive about his trade value and take it personally for some reason.
Don't speak about Simmons like that, KID.
Just kidding. I just defend the talk about Simmons when people talk as if he hasn't made an All-NBA team within his first 3 seasons, or if isn't a perennial All-Star having made it the past 3 years, or All-Defensive 1st Team the past 2 years. Pretty accomplished resume for a guy within his first 4 years by 24 years old.
The issue obviously is will he play and will he be motivated? All the talent and physical tools in the world, but mentally fragile. He's Cali soft. No point in trading a player of his caliber and accomplishments at his age for peanuts, they're better off hanging onto him until a team desperately needs to move an All-Star caliber player.
Plus, let's be honest....this place would be boring without hot takes which is why i like it, not that anything i've said is a reach.
