    They couldn’t (or wouldn’t) put shooters around Harden but they’re gonna build a team around Simmons?

    “Just put shooters around him!”

    My guess is this will boil down to how much we value current products vs. future rebuilding. Simmons and Maxey are ready to fit into a starting roster today and contribute. I don't see us or many teams right now being interested in Kyrie given his personal issues, so you're probably looking at Levert and Allen. Nets will try to compensate by offering more picks and less restrictions. Question will be how close the 76ers get to that in trying to match the picks haul given their personnel advantage, and how much the Rockets value Simmons + Maxey over Levert + Allen.

    Chill JR. Simmons isn't coming here. They are bluffing the Nets.

    I thought Thybulle was the one we wanted, not Maxey?

    I'll always love PJ, but his contract demands won't materialize from any team. Nobody is dumb enough to commit big money and years to an under-sized 35 year old forward.

    Lol I can't even imagine it to be honest. My mind keeps hiding Simmons at the 4 and trading Tucker lol.
