Simmons was an All-Star as a big point guard in Philly. I could definitely see him initiating the offense to open games. This gets Luka off the ball early and reduces his usage like everyone wants. Then Simmons can check out at the six minute mark and run the offense again when Luka sits.
Luka will have plenty of time to cook in crunch time.
Obviously Simmons has to play better but don't forget Kidd tried to turn Michael Carter-Williams into a stud in Milwaukee and Simmons is 10x better today than MCW ever was. I mean, Simmons is a big PG who can't shoot but is a game changing defender. I just think Kidd would lose his mind, especially if it only costs THJ and Powell as neither are Kidd-type players anyway.
