I don’t remember reading anything about it from a reliable source and don’t understand why the Nets would want to get rid of him when asking for a young allstar from Durant. Seems to me having 2 young allstars paired together after losing Durant and Harden is a good direction for a team. What we have to offer would be some culture guys that don’t mess with the chemistry. That isn’t at any type of value to get Simmons. It is the type of value to get Harris though.
I just don’t think the idea of Simmons to the Mavs is very well thought out. Unless one of the big news guys are saying it’s a possibility.
Yeah, I can't see it unless things are just way worse than we know. It is being thought about because of that weird NBA rule. I just don't think it makes sense for the Nets. If I was running the Nets either KD comes to camp with me or I get a package I can't turn down. They don't just want picks. So in theory, Simmons would fit well with that in either scenario. You would think you would want them to at least see him play for your team.
If they trade KD and want to have a competent team now then I don't know how you do that as you are selling .25 on the dollar for Kyrie and .40 on the dollar for Simmons. Just doesn't make sense to me.
