Ben Simmons is on a playoff team, no need to move the talk to the draft

Is the discussion on Ben Simmons' 76ers in the playoffs? Or is the discussion on Ben Simmons' 76ers in a...

There’s been no mention of draft prospects. We are talking about Ben Simmons who’s team plays today. Kind of feels like you killed the dialogue. Just my opinion

Top 5 player (when Steph & KD out).
Still going slander him when he come up short, and gets blamed for it inevitably

I'd rather be able to plug and play BI anywhere than have to dismantle an entire roster to try to set up a Giannis like setup for my team to even have a chance to succeed. When Ben isn't near the level of just attitude and force that Giannis plays with. I THINK that's the only way for him to flourish and be able to maximize his talents, just surround him with all shooters but I'm not sure that's the case.

That’s not the case. Ben would be at his best running alongside another lead guard. I’ve said before to put him the Draymond role (they gonna ignore him shooting anyway) and have him do all the little things. Push the break, screening, posting. Even when watching the ASG, Ben was pretty much playing PF and we seen how he looked running with CP0

You don't have to dismantle a team for Simmons. Just give him a damn PG to play with.

You say that as if you haven’t fired off hot takes of your own about other players based on single game performances...

How is that NOT a trade post?
'dismantle an entire roster
'surround him w/ shooters'
That's draft/roster building talk. Convince me it's not.
People just hate having action done on their posts. No? What does the above post have anything to do with the sixers game in a couple hours? How is that not a draft/roster building post?

So a dude playing the Draymond role is a franchise player? Sounds like a really high level role player to me.

Because in a couple hours we'll be talking about damn Embid would look better if he had some shooters surrounding him

Where is the word DRAFT or DRAFT PICK in the post you referenced?

About a Sixers team in the playoffs with a poor roster because of Simmons and his time masquerading as a PG.

I'm confused. It's 2 hours before game time in a playoff thread but the main topic surrounding Simmons is other teams potential packages to land Simmons, or what the 76ers can do in the next couple hours to get Simmons a better PG.

damn, that really is his burner account, huh? Looked at his tweets and its KCP central.

He and Simmons are basically the same guy, one just far more skilled offensively.
