Straight up CJ for Simmons i say no

 

[B-Roy]

If Philly is really willing to trade Simmons this offseason I have to imagine that Portland is at the top of the list. Philly fans are crapping all over Ben right now.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Idk he’s a sub 70% ft shooter just like Simmons.

Simmons is shooting 34% and got benched.
Giannis doesn’t get benched.
34%!!!!!!!!

 

[DDolla]

Sixers forum, they want Dame for Simmons lol

Morey and Olshey are tight too.

If we trade Dame, I’d rather get Jaylen Brown.

34%!!!!!!!!

It’s a bad series and he will surely be scapegoated. All I know is he would instantly become our best playmaker and defender.

 

[DDolla]

Doc Rivers is overrated as a coach.

Perfect. Lets hope more feels the same

 

[Hoopguru]

I’m sorry but Ben Simmons is an extreme liability. This is pathetic.

Shot 4 times...with the way the game is played now days you've got to have...Harris was bad too.

 

[Hoopguru]

Telling ya Rivers has a tough time in the playoffs. If they lose the series to Atlanta Morey could be aggressive with changes.

Outside of AD you couldnt design a better companion to Dame in a lab. They help mitigate each other's weaknesses perfectly

 

[DDolla]

Nate McMillan and Monty Williams…. Just sayin

 

[Buffalo Custard]

Simmons for CJ? If the Blazers keep Powell that would be home run.

 

[Scalma]

Dame
Powell
Roco
Simmons
Nurk

haven’t seen balance like that since Aldridge left.

 

[Hoopguru]

Utah looks as good as any team Ive seen in the poffs. The Suns have looked good too.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

cup is also what you have vodka in as you watch the Blazers get outscored in the 4th Q 28-14

Coffee, Tea, Golf.
Vodka goes in a rocks glass....

 

[Scalma]

The west is gonna be wide open for the foreseeable future. Olshey cant fuck this up.

 

[crandc]

First Milwaukee, then Philly. Damn.

 

[DDolla]

Just as long Simmons sits when the game is close

 

[Titan]

Wow another team chocking. This off season could get crazy with the trades and possibly more coach/GM firings

 

[Dom McBlazer]

First Milwaukee, then Philly. Damn.

I still have the Bucks winning this series.

 

[calvin natt]

Simmons is like a backcourt Rodman. His defense is all that matters. He will stop guys from scoring but if you are looking for him to contribute a ton offensively you’ll be disappointed. The FT shooting is just so atrocious. Mental midget and if that doesn’t get fixed you can’t have a guy that good and expensive sitting whenever it’s close at the end.

 

[wizenheimer]

maybe Philly really really wants CJ, and another team really really wants Simmons, and is willing to give up a player that Portland really really wants. win-win-win

 

[illmatic99]

No no no. Why would we not want simmons?

Sigh been dreaming of portland somehow being able to get him here since his draft.

Look at how MDA unlocked Westbrook. He can do the same for Ben.

 

[AldoTrapani]

The west is gonna be wide open for the foreseeable future. Olshey cant fuck this up.

This was the year. He fucked it up already. Some random team is going to win it this year and we missed out smh

 

[Hoopguru]

Random team?

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Embiid and Curry were the only Sixers to make a FG in the second half

 

[AldoTrapani]

Random team?

Yea a Utah, Phx, shit maybe Hawks the way they playing. These are teams that get no respect like us in the national conciseness

 

[Mediocre Man]

The west is gonna be wide open for the foreseeable future. Olshey cant fuck this up.

Hold my beer
