RE: 2021 NBA TRADE TALK: Ben Simmons refusing to report in PHI - Scott41theMavs - 08-11-2021 (08-11-2021, 05:26 PM)cow Wrote: I don't love Doc but he is 10x the coach that Kidd is. I just want Curry back. I don't know how good or bad of a coach Kidd is after his stint in LA. However, I'm well-versed in how abominable Rivers is. If Kidd isn't a superior coach to him now, then 1) he learned nothing in LA, 2) we really pooped the bed worse than I could possibly imagine, and 3) we're doomed. RE: 2021 NBA TRADE TALK: Ben Simmons refusing to report in PHI - Mavs2021 - 08-11-2021 If I am Portland and Philly gives me Simmons, Korkmaz, Maxey, Thybulle, Joe, Springer, Petrusev for Lillard/DJJ, I´d probably do it. That Philly roster has some ridiculous young talent besides Simmons. Maxey and Korkmaz could be 15 PPG scorers as early as next year. Thybulle, Covington, Simmons and Nurkic might be the best defensive unit in the league.

If abominable is how you'd describe Rivers, and I'd barely argue that, I'd hate how to see how you describe Kidd's resume. Kidd was out of the league for a reason and until he proves otherwise, he's an absolute failure as a head coach.

That Philly roster has some ridiculous young talent besides Simmons. Are any of the Maxey, Thybulle, Korkmaz, Joe, Springer, Petrusev group franchise changing talents?? Hell no. But that list of names right there is just a further indictment on the Mavs FO and their complete disinterest most of the time and incompetence when they actually decided to make some picks and not do Satnam bits. I don't know if this incarnation of Philly wins a chip but if they do...you can bet that names from that list will be contributors and/or pieces used to acquire contributors.

We are talking about head coaching. Something Doc has been since '99. RE: 2021 NBA TRADE TALK: Ben Simmons refusing to report in PHI - HAguiar95 - 08-12-2021 Forget Lauri, the guy we should be chasing is Larry Nance Jr. He could start next to KP. Very good defender (disruptor, forces turnovers very frequently - we were very bad in this category for 2 years now), can play small ball five and guard multiple positions, good lob threat/rim-rolling, can pass/rebound and fits into our TPE. If we're serious about competing, we should make a move for him since it doesn't seem like he's hard to get. Green for Nance (TPE); Get Dragic (trade Powell/Terry/2nd or buyout, don't matter); Luka/Brunson Dragic/THJ DFS/Bullock Nance/Kleber KP/WCS RE: 2021 NBA TRADE TALK: Ben Simmons refusing to report in PHI - Kammrath - 08-12-2021 (08-12-2021, 01:11 PM)HAguiar95 Wrote: the guy we should be chasing is Larry Nance Jr. He could start next to KP I 100% agree that he is theoretically a much better fit next to KP than LM. But we don't know if the Mavs are truly building their roster with KP in mind. So we need to think about all their decisions in light of BOTH KP being around OR him being gone.

Not to mention that it seems like he has been on the block since the TDL and nobody has bitten. Not sure if that's due to the asking price or maybe because the league knows something about him we don't (see Schroder) but there was an article from a few weeks back that made it seem like Nance couldn't be given away. That raised my eyebrows a bit, because I, too, like his potential fit here.

That will be interesting. RE: 2021 NBA TRADE TALK: Ben Simmons refusing to report in PHI - Kammrath - 08-17-2021 RE: Low NBA Trade Activity It feels to me like a lot of the NBA trade world is at a halt, waiting for the resolution of the Ben Simmons situation potentially. Maybe he is the domino that starts the rest. I am shocked POR hasn't done anything yet to appease Lillard..... feels like stuff must be brewing behind the scenes. It feels like we might get a cascade of trades in September this year.

Quote:Trading Simmons now for anything short of a haul that could immediately be flipped for Lillard, in the event he does request a trade, would be a devastating blow for Philadelphia's front office, and their efforts to pair Embiid with a bonafide superstar. Quote:Simmons, on the other hand, appears more than interested in playing for a new team. He expects to be traded and has not personally been in close contact with Morey, Embiid or head coach Doc Rivers this offseason, sources told Bleacher Report. Simmons' representation has further canvassed rival front offices, gauging their interest in creating a new home for the 25-year-old All-Star and this year's runner-up in Defensive Player of the Year. Quote:Toronto, though, was never going to entertain a framework of acquiring Simmons for OG Anunoby, Fred VanVleet and the No. 4 pick, which Philadelphia pitched the weekend before July's NBA draft. Quote:there is a faction of the Spurs front office rumored to strongly covet Simmons. Quote:Again, all these variables likely point to Simmons sticking around Philadelphia for the foreseeable future. Quote:Simmons may have no real choice but to join the Sixers in September and play his way to a new destination, regardless of the icy communication that has persisted all summer, dating back to Rivers' and Embiid's post-Game 7 press conferences.

That's a totally real situation that will happen to him all the time. |
