Chip Engelland the shot doctor
It took him 2 weeks to turn Kawhi Leonard into a competent shooter. They had the lockout looming and he got to business.
Coming out of the draft he couldn't shoot at all. It's the main reason he dropped from top 6 to 15 back in 2011.

Is this Jr523?
What lottery teams pick up the phone for a Simmons call? I say the only ones not listening are the Pistons and maybe if a team falls in love with Suggs.
Lavine please
i think Sexton + filler is realistic and a good trade too
Sexton, Love and #3 for Simmons & Tobias
Sexton and love would help 76ers more than ben simmons. No way they're including Tobias and no way cavs give up the 3rd pick in that package for simmons. Maybe if this were 1 or 2 years ago but simmons value low af right now and Tobias on that contract
I say that cuz the days of grit and grinding it with low scoring defensive teams are over. In today's nba defense is pretty much hamstrung by the rules, thats why a team like the hawks full of 3 point bombers are far more dangerous

No...they wouldn't. This is why y'all not NBA Gms. Y'all think the value is THAT low. Really? Really?

Rockets dumbasses but they decided they'd clearly rather just tank for high picks then rebuild around simmons
That's one example. Another is all the whispers of simmons for McCullum when a year or two ago it woulda been for lillard
Simmons had a rep of being on the verge of becoming a top 5 player a couple years ago. Now he's one of those "he is who he is" type borderline all stars
You said Kevin Love and Colin Sexton would be better for us than Ben Simmons....
I've had enough ktt for today
The only way you can propose that Simmons woulda got flipped for Lillard is if you (the ownership) thought Lillard wasn't a franchise piece. But idk at what point in reality Simmons would've been close to Dame. It wouldn't have been in 2017-18, Ben's arguable peak. Wouldnt have been the next year where Dame ended up being a star and carried the Blazers to a WCF
That being said, Love is a negative asset, and that's the reason he hasn't been traded for ANYONE. He was mentally weak in the offs and couldn't keep up with bigs nor floor spacers 6 years ago for a team that was routinely in the top 5 of wins and had multiple mentally strong players to support him.
One thing Philly simply doesn't have is guys with fortitude. You cannot add another guy who doesn't have that
Sexton is cool but he's another cat that has ball stopper tendencies and has a PG frame but a shooting guard's game. Him and Seth would get demolished in minutes together on D.
I wouldn't be mad at him necessarily, but doing that trade without also getting back their pick this draft essentially closes your title window

You can't even have ben simmons on the floor in playoff 4th quarters. Sexton alone would be an upgrade to Ben who literally provides nothing in playoff 4th quarters
And I dont wanna hear s*** about defense cuz wasn't nobody stopping trae from going off, and certainly wasn't making him work on defense lmao
