I just hope Siummons rots, burns, suffers, falls, crashes, breaks a leg, breaks an arm, gets in a tire fire, dies in a plane crash, get hit by a bus.... the list goes on

you assume that there will be a better deal

Almost inevitable. The prime time to trade is not this time of year, it's during the season when teams are desperate to make changes as buyers or sellers at the deadline.

Either way, it would be horrible for the entire league if Simmons wins and gets what he wants by being traded before the season. Nobody wants to see that.

Simmons just put his crib in Philly up for sale

his LA mansion alone is over 5 times as valuable as this

I hope Simmons wins and gets what he wants

Reconsidering holdout because taking notice to financial significance…. WUT

He actually lives in his LA mansion though....that's like his actual home.

This spot in Philly is just a condo, granted it's a really nice condo at the Ritz-Carlton in center city, but still just a condo.

After receiving a big fine for missing last night's preseason game, sources say Ben Simmons' representation spoke to the players association and had it reiterated the money could not be recovered, a potential sign that the weight of a holdout is setting in.



Sixers front office just grinning

The general theory does make sense. Most #1 picks join a roster where it all revolves around them, and they have a a year or two to develop their game at the nba level without being under a microscope. But the Sixers situation should be looked at as a positive not a negative. Rich Paul has always been a pessimist.

Crumbling under the weight of expectation. No wonder he went to an irrelevant school like LSU.
