Every Ben Simmons Trade is a Win for Philly




Every Ben Simmons Trade is a Win for Philly

    With Ben Simmons's terrible playoff showing looming in the background, his absence at pre-season workouts, and the entire city of Philadelphia waiting, Simmons is a sitting duck. He gets the opportunity to sit back and wait for the 76ers to find the perfect trade. Simmons put his team in this position and they are now on a time restraint with the season approaching quickly. 

    Ben Simmons is currently playing a metaphorical game of "chicken" with his soon to be former team. He made it clear that he is willing to take all the fines and penalties for sitting out. With a disgruntled Simmons choosing to cry like a baby and refuse to play another game in a 76ers jersey the team is now in a situation that can only be caused by an immature child. 

    As Philadelphia looks for a perfect deal they have their eyes set on a Harden-like trade. Philly is looking to find a team willing to depart with the entire farm and the future draft picks also. The leading destination is another burning ship headed to the bottom of the ocean, Portland. The presumed trade is CJ Mccolum and Robert Covington for Benjamin.  Two amazing players for a child. 

    Others have suggested the Spurs as a possible Daycare for Simmons. With the assumption that they would depart from Murray. What is old Greg thinking! Every trade that you propose is a win for Philadelphia. 

Next stop is shanghai for Simmons.
