So I was thinking about Ben Simmons. I have no idea if the Nets would or want to trade him and I have no idea if he is still an NBA player.
When thinking about trades, I tend to offer too much because most trades you need to feel some pain to get the guy you want.
So here goes, would you trade Dinwiddie or Hardaway, Powell and two future first round picks and salary for Simmons?
I included the two first round picks because teams are throwing them in like candy in trades and Dallas always attaches picks. I could see New Jersey preferring Hardaway or Dinwiddie depending on what they get for KD. I could also see the Mavs preferring to keep either Hardaway or Din depending on the day.
That would leave Dallas with a huge team. Starting lineup of Luka, DFS, Bullock, Simmons and Wood. With either Din/Hardaway as the 6th man and Maxi and McGee as your 7th and 8th men. On paper that team looks good.
Although Simmons may already be quasi retired......
