The only pause, and question, I would have is his desire to improve his game and not his status among Hollywood elites. |

Whatever deficiency in shooting, Ben will make up for with better ballhandling and fewer turnovers. Just keep three long-range snipers with him on the floor at all times: EF, IQ, RJ, Burks, KK. But not giving up youth that can shoot. |

A front court of Joel Embiid and Julius Randle makes Philly instant title contenders.
No Thnx you! |

In all this Randle for Simmons swap, folks are forgetting that the Sixers already have a capable PF in Tobias Harris.
Why do they need Randle? |

Randle & RJ Barrett must GO .. And should be put on the trade table on Dec 15
Randle is no good without Bullocks complimentary hustle backing him up. And 3rd pick RJ Barrett very Low B.ball IQ, has never showed a consistent performance to receive more than 20 minute a game! The Knicks upper brass put Barrett in the starter lineup for 35 minute per game from day one, and Barrett performance been hurting the starter lineup so bad, that PF Randle had to help facilitating the offense (not SG Barrett). The excuse of Barrett being young doesn't work no more when it's hurting several teammates performance. |

Randle kemba and that’s it… no one is offering stars for Simmons that probably would be the best offer on the table . But I don’t see the sizers making a deal with us …

Yeah have to agree, after thinking more about trading Randle for Simmons I don’t know if that’s a smart move … but at the same time I don’t want to trade the youth … but again why would Philly make a trade within there division unless it was for Randle..it would give them one of the greatest front courts of all time … and we’d get a 6’10” pg who can’t shoot can’t even shoot from 10 feet out … great defensive player but struggles in the playoffs it wouldn’t be a upgrade for us. |

Yes, I have always thought that Harris is more of a classic scoring SF who is undersized at PF. Randle for Simmons actually makes sense for us, Simmons is 6'11' and can play at the PF position in a 3-guard lineup for us, compensating for his poor shooting. But I would hate to trade our youth for Simmons, and the Sixers will probably find a better deal than Randle. |

Outside of perimeter shooting, there is nothing on the court that Randle does better than Simmons. Simmons is a first team all NBA defender, he has a much better handle, he is 10xs the passer that Julius is (Julius passes to the open man, Simmons passes players open that didn't even know they were open), he is just as good of a rebounder as Julius perhaps better when you consider that he can get it off the board and start the break and get into the open court which he does much better than Julius. He also has better court awareness and understanding of the game. Despite his inability to shoot from the perimeter, he still a 56% EFG%. 2 reasons why I would hesitate to trade for Simmons is his salary and his inability to hit freethrows. With that said, lets not make Simmons out to be Ish Smith. Ben Simons is capable of putting up big numbers... |

It's great. People saying to get Simmons and watch him improve on his game. Which he's refused to do for the last 4 years. And directly because of which stance he now doesn't feel like playing.
Yes, this is exactly the type of player we need to be a better franchise. Forget the media. Forget the fact he's a maxed out player not playing because it's more conducive to his personality to sulk. Does anyone remember watching him run away from the ball in the playoffs? Anyone? Anyone? Tell me how you want to sign up for that. |
