    It must suck to be stuck with a player that has been selected to the all star game multiple times, yet doesn't really fit just any team, therefore, you are going to be offered not as good as players as you think.

    I actually think this a decent deal for Philadelphia, because although Brogdon will likely never be an All-Star, he really is someone that would fit perfect with this sixers team.

    Brogdan is 10+ mil / year cheaper. 38.8% in 3p%, 86% FT%, 20 pts per game guy.

    A 6'5" point guard, and fills the playmaking role Philly needs. Phiily is supposed to be contending during Embid's window. Fit over #meaningless all star appearances.

    John Wall is an all-star caliber player. :p Salaries match well too.

    Get 'er done, Morley!

    Who needs a jumper?
    Hopefully he doesn't get robbed once word in the neighborhood gets out that he can't shoot.

    If kawhi walks to miami like the recent rumor, trading Simmons for George would be a solid get for the 6ers

    That would make sense.

    Paul George just isn't made for the Western Conference. A return to the Easter Conference would suit him.

    Gun control advocates should get Simmons as their poster boy for their campaigns.

    Phily would have to give picks to LA for such a package.

    Europeans will tell me "so-and-so band is playing in San Diego, you should catch their show this weekend."

    Ah -- yeah, and you should head from Sweden to Portugal to catch Bruno Mars tomorrow night.

    So much for the "Simmons easily worth a top lotto pick" crowd.

    Brogdon and a 1st? Lol
