76ers turn down Brogdon + 1st for Ben Simmons offer, will only trade him for an All-Star

[Shadow King]

Because the Coli isn't in tune with his actual value.

Ben Simmons falls apart in the playoffs.

Philadelphia is focused on "falls apart"

Teams who want Ben are focused on "in the playoffs."

What team has an All-Star caliber guard that's struggling to get in the playoffs and thinks Ben is the answer?

It doesn't really matter where Simmons is leading the sixers to anymore as clearly they are looking to trade him...

Obviously your perception and GM’s perception of his value differ... If the sixers are allegedly being offered quality players like Brogdan + 1s ... He clearly holds value among front offices... What he actually ends up being moved for if at all is still a question that's yet to be answered

It does matter because alot of NBA media are pushing ideas that have major influence in NBA front offices....IM not pissed at the Sixers for trying to get as miuch as they can im pissed that the NBA media pushes these BS narratives....Simmons had a horrific playoff run the fact these rumors are even getting a platform to be discussed is insanity.

ben simmons finna destroy this franchise

That’s NBA talk for you these days though and we’ve contributed to it happening by entertaining these type of conversations in general.

Malcolm Brogdon ain't leading you to no damn championship... Sixers know that and this is why that deal was rejected..


nikka couldn't even lead his own team to a playoff spot...but leave it to @Goofy Scott-Heroin to expound on him leading a team to the Larry O ....


LMAO

The Sixers don't need Malcolm Brogdon to lead them to a ring. They need to him to be 2A/2B with Tobias which he can do.

That's what Morey's looking for

Someone better than Brogdon apparently.

Brogdon is that caliber of player. If you think he's not, what's the answer to the question, especially with the idea of "make the playoffs" as a goal as you alluded to?

 

[Miggs]

Brogdon can score but got zero defense.
Was Philly gonna just gonna use him as trade bait ?

Cuz Philly fans running out of patience

Who gives a fukk about Philly fans patience you arent owed a superstar because Simmons sucks...

 

[GoldenGlove]

The disrepect of Brogdon is a little odd he's a 20,6 and 5 guy and can do that effeciently, those guys don't grow on trees, Swap out Brogdon for Simmons the 76ers are in the finals, imo.

Yeah, Philly doesn't need much to solidify their position either. They add a Brogdon and they fix a lot of what they are missing. It'll be interesting to see if they get greedy and prolong this til the season starts, which would be potential fukkery IMO for that locker room.

 

[Peter Popoff]

Philly stupid.....well Morey is. He should've been fired after he fukked Houston up.

 

[LV Koopa]

Danny Green's injury was a big blow to Philly. Simmons is more exposed when he can't just sit around passing the ball on offense. At least Brogdon will go for the jugular and is a + defender himself.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Malcolm Brogdon ain't leading you to no damn championship... Sixers know that and this is why that deal was rejected..



On another note..if true this does at least let us know that Malcolm is available... My bulls desperately need to get a PG

Simmons isn't leading you to a championship either

Which is ok Philly is one of the best defensive teams in the league they need a bucket at the guard positions.

The only other trade that could make come sense is to see if Timberwolves would give up D'Angelo Russell and some pieces to match salary.

 

[King Sun]

In the world of the Modern NBA and what the playoffs has show us for the past 10 years that an low scoring PG with elite defense isn't getting you past the 2nd round. Philly is keeping dude
