Josh Hart would be great for the Nets 

Yeah looked at the trailblazers roster. If i were the blazers I’m not giving up Simons or little. It’s likely looking something like this in terms of players and I’m guessing some sort of picks. Basically an expiring contract of Eric Bledsoe, hart and a nice potential in a young player in Johnson  

 

 

I can't wait for Nash or Durant to say something mildly negative about him after they get eliminated so he can throw a tantrum and demand another trade

I love how nets fans all over Twitter when the trade was made were he’s awesome, we won the trade, he’s exactly what we need and do the things he wouldn’t in Philly. My prediction was all nets fans would hate him by the end of next year. Might be sooner than i thought. It’s sad there’s a few nets fans that still defend him now. 

We’ll all dislike Harden by the end of next year, too.

Not so sure that doesn’t happen before the end of the playoffs lol. Tbh it might be a trade in the end that actually hurt both teams more than helps long term. I thought when the nets traded for harden last year they should’ve just either built around kd and harden and deal kyrie to get a plethora of guys around them. Or just built around kyrie and KD with giving them more depth. They didn’t need 3 stars. Granted if all were healthy and in their prime they’d be the team to beat but kyrie and KD had become unreliable in recent years in terms of playing all the time (kyrie really since college had an issue). However that never played out

I'm surprised Durant hasn't b---ch slapped him already. Ben was intimidated by a couple weeks with Jimmy Butler. KD's got that same mentality but also has the rings to back it up...Ben won't make it through the offseason.   

I’m not impressed with the Heat at all.

I give credit to Jimmy butler. He looks fantastic. The rest of the heat look just eh tonight (tucker for what he is playing better than i thought he would).

I kind of feel like the hawks are gonna make a run in the second half. i don’t think it’ll be enough cause they dug themselves into this hole. I don’t see bogdanovic, young and huerter continuing to shoot 2-15. 

Pretty amazing the nets have 2 players who seemingly unreliable. 

ben Simmons has missed 2 out of 6 years of his career. He’s played 60+ games just 2 times in 6 years. 

kyrie has played 60+ games in just 4 of 11 seasons. Even at Duke he missed about half the season. 

I don't see anybody beating Boston

They are my pick.  GSW/Boston will be an entertaining finals

The east might come down to whether middleton is healthy enough for the semi-finals against Boston. The bucks/Celtics winner is going to the finals. I’d say Celtics but then i saw what Giannis did last finals so i won’t say he and the bucks couldn’t beat Boston.

Simmons is officially the Sam Bradford of the NBA.

Simmons is the West Virginia trailer park boy of the NBA: says his back hurts, which can never be proven, and collects disability

Even the iron sheik is mad

Hoping Harden isn’t on this team after these playoffs.

That’s a rather specific analogy.

Dont see that happening at all. He will opt in for next season

definitely not going anywhere with embiid's boo-boo thumb. he'd have to play lights out to get past the 2nd round but that's not happening. thumb on the shooting hand is going to get wacked all game long.

 

Another post season, another injury affecting Embiids ability to carry the team all the way.

Didn't you want to trade Embiid and keep Simmons ??

sixers should trade embiid to cleveland for a few of their bench guys. 

ESPN Sources: The Nets and Ben Simmons expected he would be ready to play on Monday, but after getting on the court yesterday Simmons says he awoke with back soreness today. In the end, the team and Simmons agreed he'll remain out for Game 4.

miller shouldn't make fun of a person suffering from mental health issues    

The best ending would be Durant or Kyrie hitting this tool. 

I’m pretty sure the nets deal him this offseason. Frankly i don’t think he wants to be in Brooklyn and wants to be in California

I hated Sam Bradford, but even I think this is unfair to him. The only Philly athlete I would compare to Simmons is Andrew Bynum.
