Green is also passionate about winning, a vocal leader, can knock down an open 3, isn't scared of going to the line in clutch situations, puts his team into position defensively

Can't find those intangibles on 2k my dude


Green is also 31 years old and a 10 year NBA veteran. Of course he's going to be ready in those situations.

"can knock down the open shot" wait what? He's a 27% 3pt shooter the past 2 years and defenses literally defend him like they do Simmons, just leaving him wide open. He averages 0.5 made threes per game, what are we talking about here?


Comparing a 31 year old who averages 7 PPG on 44% FG to a 24 year old who averages more than twice that on 56%. Yet we're talking about who the better scorer is? Stop it right now.

wait wut

This is talking about Draymond now, versus Simmons now.

You're talking about years ago when Draymond was winning Championships as like the 4th best player on his own team :rofl:

Dude played with Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, and Klay Thompson and you think he gets credit as the role player he was? I'll give him credit the one year they won with Steph and Klay against the broken Cavs who had LeBron and a bunch of guys that shouldn't have even been in the NBA, even though Green still was far from the most valuable player on that Warriors team anyway (3rd best player - and Iggy ended up winning Finals MVP anyway).

Draymond had one good year as a shooter, that's it. One. Otherwise he has been absolute garbage. He got paid and stopped practicing his jump shot.

No need for the 76ers to trade Simmons because they won't get fair value

Try to find a way and package Hill, Maxey/Milton, picks + fill and bring in a Kyle Lowry or Malcolm Brogdon

Simmons won't get moved unless the 76ers get a superstar and I don't see which team is going to trade their star for Simmons current mental state + contract

Simmons has already told his agent to demand a trade, that's why their front office has flip flopped from saying "if we hear a good offer then he's on the table" to now "Simmons is on the trading block"

Doc Rivers and Joel Embiid have both made it clear that they don't want Simmons on the team. You really think a guy who is afraid of criticism for missing shots is going to be okay psychologically coming into this environment starting 2021?

Think about how Philly fans are and how much shit he's going to get if he plays for them... that is not a recipe for winning a title for Philly. They should cut their losses and quit the bleeding now while they still can. His value can lower even further if he gets booed and doesn't have his usual regular season stat line

Sexton or Garland +
Brogdon + Warren?
Beasley + DLo
CJ McCollum + Derrick Jones
Barnes + Hield
S&T Lowry + Fred/OG

Would look something like this? What other teams are potential suitors?

I'd keep Ben Simmons over any of those except maybe Pacers

Trolling.

Draymond "7 PPG and 44% FG" Green is hot garbage as a scorer. Good passer, good defender.

Simmons is not only a better offensive player, but he's a better defensively player too, clearly.


Green is pretty much a shorter, fatter, less athletic and less skilled version of Simmons. Plus Green is like 7 years older lol


Draymond was a vital part of a championship winning team. Defended 1 to 5. A real leader

Simmons has to be taken out of games even with how good his defense is because he air balls layups and passes up wide open dunks because he's mental midget

Morey tried to negotiate Brogdon + Warren and Indiana countered saying best I can do is Brogdon + 13 pick

Beasley + DLo already offered and Morey declined

Sacramento doesn't want Simmons next to Fox, this isn't a good fit

Um, you must have not watched the play-in games this season, huh?

Missed when Draymond Green passed up wide open layups to win the game.....multiple times?
