winitall Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Not a big basketball guy, but it looks like the financials on this would work, any thoughts? 76ers receive: Draymond Green, 2021 Min 1st, cap filler Warriors receive: Ben Simmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to match up multiple large contracts just to make a deal work. There were several aging players this year that ended up as buyouts and that is where Wall is heading too (when he's in the last year of his deal). The cap will be up and more players will have signed big deals by then. Expiring's always have some type of value. I'm not saying Wall's or Simmons' is better, I'm simply saying an argument can be made for either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieMonstah Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 The overreactions in here are comical. The worst contract in the league? lol. Get the guy a sport psychologist and transition him into more of a 4. He's still one of the best defenders in the league, an elite passer and finishes well around the rim. He's just a horrific fit with Embiid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thelonebillsfan Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Yes, they should have 12 months ago. Even if Tillman Fertita said no for Harden, you had to have made that move then. It doesn't work, it'll never work. The styles don't match with Embiid and blankly Ben's mental state is NEVER going to recover in Philly. He has to go somewhere that he can just be a guy and rebuild himself if he's not going to be washed out of the league in a couple years.

Genuinely afraid he’d get fouled trying to dunk and have to shoot FT’s. Only explanation that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkeyDoke21 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 He just shot 100% from the field in the 4th quarter for an entire 7 game series. Has an all-star ever done that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on your definition of "way cheaper". List will probably be short, but that doesnt neglect the fact Simmons contract is horrible for the type of player he is.

Lonzo is a good example, but he's not going to be paid far cheaper for much longer lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Cavs get Simmons, 1st Round pick 76ers get Kevin Love & Darius Garland. Who says no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
