Ben Simmons is on the block.. I'd still see if that is somewhat salvageable. I'm also insane.

Once he gets cut, on a minimum deal, maybe. On his current near-max deal, no freaking way.

He's like AD, just looks brittle. Everytime he jumps and lands you think he's gonna break something.

I like Simmons when he is healthy and can play, but there's always that "the best ability is availability" thing.

I wouldn't trade anyone for him unless they were equally questionable.

Contract is huge…we’d have to trade Beal for him

Simmons has got only one year left on his contract so Brooklyn may just want to wait it out for the cap space.

Feels like he has averaged 2 games a year. I think he's mentally fragile. Most likely not worth it.

Though if they just buy him out in the off-season I think we can actually sign him…I read the buyout restriction is just in-season.

Mitchell could have been useful here; given away for peanuts to clear a roster spot. That's a shame.

I'm so disappointed in anyone who thinks Ben Simmons, on any contract, is a good idea. You're better than that.

I think Jalen McDaniels is better than anyone the Suns had on their bench last season.

Jalen sucked last year…he did flash some stuff in Charlotte, but he was real bad for Toronto

He originally reported that Charlotte was sending the 3 2nds and I got so confused…makes much more sense now. Just a salary dump
