According to The Athletic, if the 76ers can't complete Simmons' trade before this season's trade deadline, Simmons will be sidelined for the entire season.
Do you know? There are only 20 days left before this year's trading deadline (this year's trading deadline is 4:00 a.m. Beijing time on February 11).
This year's trading market is really calm, from the beginning of the season to now it has been 3 or 4 times? Therefore, I really did not expect that the trading deadline was approaching. There are many potential transactions, I don't know if this year's trading deadline will be very lively?!
So, there's really not much time left for Simmons. If the 76ers don't let up, simmons will have to miss an entire season in good health, in his years of strength.
Has this been the case before in the NBA?
Rivers said that now about Simmons' handling, he is not involved, it is all handled by management, Rivers said: "I believe in our approach to Simmons, most of the time, I stay out of the matter. ”
Rivers' relationship with Simmons now, really... Fortunately, Simmons could hardly return to the 76ers to play, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
With the 76ers having to have an All-Star player and want to take away Harris' "garbage" contract together, many teams are deterred.
The Kings are still on a team that is still very active in wanting to get Simmons, but they don't want Harris either.
Harris is now holding a contract of 180 million for 5 years, signed in 2019, counting the 3 seasons this season, and is the most expensive player for the 76ers now.
When the 76ers gave Harris the contract, a lot of people thought they were crazy.
The year he won the big contract, he averaged 18.2 points, 7.9 boards and 2.9 assists per game, and although there were still 18.1 points and 7.4 boards and 3.8 assists this season, almost no one was willing to take over his super big contract.
According to Philadelphia reporters, the Kings are considering packing Hield, Halliburton, Harrison Barnes and two first-round picks in exchange for Simmons, Harris and another Sable.
However, the 76ers are not interested in such chips.
To be fair, it seems that so far, Hongu has seen the best chip in the Simmons deal. There are really not many first-round picks that are so generous at once, that is, there are no All-Star players.
The 76ers are rumored to want Fox.
It's crazy...
The King has made it clear that Fox is not for sale, they will build a team with Fox as the core in the future, and you will have the core of the people as soon as you come up, so why don't you pack Simmons and Embiid together?
