    I'm assuming talks ended after that.

    Benjamin is broken. Who would ever take this dude off their hands? I would need at least 4 picks in order for me to even think about rescuing BK.

    Benjie is making 35 mil this year, 38 the next, and 40 the year after

    Eric Gordon no way he is way too important, Ben Simmons is a Handball Player from Australia that is playing the wrong sport.

    The Lakers should trade Westbrook for Simmons. Then they at least wouldn't have to worry about a bad shooter shooting the ball.

    His contract discussion was a scam

    I would never take Ben Simmons on the Rockets due to his contract, but honestly I would not mind him running a few no-shoot all-pass dribble drive possessions for our young beasts.

    Too many guys on your team who want to "get theirs"? Here's a guy who will give you his - gladly!

    Ben Simmons and Kyrie Irving could be blackballed

    Russell Westbrook is another one that is out the door after this season.

    The salary difference with EG is too big for this to be real I think. My guess is it was someone like Mike Conley but of course the Nets have to choose if they want to part with yet more draft compensation.

    Shocking turn of events. Who would have guessed this would be an issue after how he performed last season?

    Could this be the worst contract in the history of the NBA?

    Kawhi's contract looks pretty bad right now also.
