If I was Philly??

I don't know. I like Tatum more than Simmons. But I think just on raw potential, Simmons' ceiling is higher.
For Philly to accept a trade like that, they would need strong reasons to believe Simmons won't tap into his potential.


If you're asking who I would rather have right now based on what I saw in the 2nd half of the season and in the playoffs, I'm going Tatum.

The 76ers win more games if they went with TJ instead of Ben in the playoffs.

That's harsh breh..
At least give the man a chance during his true second season to see if he can develop a shot before you put him on a level of being as shytty a player as Roberson...:picard:

Simmons is a rich mans Rondo with PF height. He has a much higher ceiling than Tatum. I could see Tatum being a better Paul Pierce

One was a finls mvp as a 20 yr old rookie when the best player on his team went out

Another was a 22 yr old, 2nd yr vet who got outplayed an entire series by a 19 yr old, true rookie

I like Simmons but that nikkas jumpshot is so far behind I wonder if it’ll ever come. People say oh Lebron developed a J. But rookie Bron’s jumpshot was Peja Stojakovic status compared to Ben.

So why am I trading him for the next KD? Tatum has zero flaws in his game right now.

On a sidenote Philly shoulda had them both if their GM was more focused on his job

Somebody mind explaining what’s so special about Ben besides the fact that he’s Lebron with lighter skin, 2 more inches of height and no Jumpshot? He definitely has a future ahead of him, but nikkas acting like he lifetimes ahead of Tatum and I surely didn’t see that this previous post season :heh:
