NBA fans who know about Ben Simmons and the Philadelphia 76ers know that the conflict between Ben Simmons and the team on the Philadelphia 76ers has not yet been resolved. Ben Simmons has not played for the team this season and the team has not traded him. But it's clear that Ben Simmons will most likely eventually leave Philadelphia.
At present, the Los Angeles Lakers are very interested in Ben Simmons, if Ben Simmons can come to the Lakers, it is undoubtedly a very eye-catching thing, and Ben Simmons can also improve the Lakers' outside defense.
Famous Jenhei Skip Bayless recently claimed that if Ben Simmons came to the Los Angeles Lakers, he would be more valuable to the team than the current all-star on the team, Anthony Davis. Baylors cites Ben Simmons' good physical condition, as well as Simmons' injury-prone traits as an argument for his point, adding that Anthony Davis feels as if he is already in "semi-retirement" since winning the 2020 NBA championship.
Skip Bayless said: "He's 3 years younger than Anthony Davis and he's always been healthy. Davis has been injured relatively all day, and if the Lakers need a great player, Ben Simmons is now more valuable to the Lakers than Anthony Davis. I don't know what happened to him (Davis), he got the ring and it felt like he was in semi-retirement, like he wasn't so engaged anymore and I couldn't see his urgency for the game. ”
At least Skip Bayless is right about anything that Anthony Davis has been plagued by injuries since he won the NBA championship in 2020, and if you just compare their health, there's no doubt ben Simmons did win in that comparison. That being said, even Ben Simmons may play more games than Anthony Davis. But it was clear that a healthy Anthony Davis was far more capable than Simmons.
The Los Angeles Lakers do need to make some changes, and being able to get Ben Simmons will definitely give them a fresh look. But obviously, the Lakers' current situation on the inside line is actually worse than their outside line, and the Lakers' management has been focusing on the reinforcement of the outside line and has been spat on by Lakers fans, so if Simmons can really become a Lakers, then isn't the Lakers' outside line more lively?
