It's an interesting thought. Bagley + Buddy is very close like 1 million difference in salary to Simmons.
I'm not saying I want him, but unloading those 2 and getting alot better defensively sounds good to me.
Plus remember Monte and Morey are very tight.
And he wouldn't play PG for us, he would be a forward with Barnes.
Ben Simmons is worth a whole lot more than Buddy and Bagley. That trade is laughable.
Sorry fellow kangz fans, but some of y'all got your homer glasses strapped on way too tight.
Yep. At the very least it'd take Haliburton, Buddy and the number 9. Maybe more. Simmons could be a rich man's Diaw, with waaay better defense. Diaw was projected to be a PG, but couldn't cut it. Became one hell of a valuable passing big man out of the post.
Simmons is way more valuable than those two now (I think Haliburton will end up being really good though, Buddy is too dumb to be good), but the context you guys are missing is how bad of a fit Fox and Simmons would be. Fox is so much better on the ball, and Simmons needs to play on ball also.
Simmons contract is insane…
