Its a shame we ever let Wood go. He was very clearly talented back then. I think the excuse was something about character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, getting Wall as opposed to many of the other rumors will be highly disappointing. Imagine being a Houston fan though. You trade Harden for all those picks and waste them all on Ben Simmons. That's even worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_hunt Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 ben for wall doesn't even work under the cap. sixers would have to add around $11 mill in salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_hunt Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 green makes more $$ than house but that doesn't help much for salary matching. i'd rather have green than house anyway. house stinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 It really does suck having to add more players to match for wall when the real prize in the trade is the picks. Already underwhelming to begin with. And anyone you add to the deal gets downgraded such as going from Green to House. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_hunt Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Just now, Mat said: [Adrian Wojnarowski] Philadelphia 76ers All-Star Ben Simmons will not report for opening of training camp next week and intends to never play another game for the franchise. Simmons hasn’t spoken to team since a late August meeting when he communicated this message to Sixers officials. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_hunt Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 [Woj] Simmons is clearly aware of sanctions available to organization to fine and suspend him, including withholding of salary. But so far, Simmons appears willing to carry out a plan of forcing his way to a new team. Sixers have yet to find a a trade they’re willing to make for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaEagles4Life Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Just keep him at this point. Four years left on his deal and not showing up to play basketball. Some team needs to have the stones to say f you man, either play or lose your salary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
