An all star that hasn’t seen the court in forever and a day. Ben Simmons is rapidly approaching Healthy Kawhi, Big Foot, and Nessie levels of reality. I mean, sure, if another superstar goes FFH on his team because he wants out of a lunatic asylum, I’ve no doubt that that team would gladly unload him. I’m just not really sure that that’s the sort of situation that’s going to make Durant happy, though.
And you’re looking at this from the wrong angle, Harden wanted to go to Philly and Morey wanted to unload Ben Simmons on someone. Both Harden and Morey got their wish. How happy do you think the Nets are with that deal today?
