Had to ask....

[Handlogten's Heros]

Simmons is really good. He definitely deserved ROY. I wouldn’t trade DM for him and wouldn’t think twice. Easier to make a team around DM and he fits the culture and is 4 billion times more likeable.

Simmons seems like an arrogant ******* and I want to like the guys on my team. Has the personality of a 2x4.

Mitchell is a budding superstar on the court. In many ways, he is already a superstar off the court. We need to win big games this year. If we can make it to the 2nd round and have a strong performance, Donovan Mitchell will be a household name.

I don't think there is a single player in the NBA I would trade Mitchell for. Why?:

- he wants to be here. LBJ, KD, whoever is a better player probably doesn't want to be here
- he has marketability. People like him unlike Simmons who people just respect his game
- he literally can do everything on the court - defense, passing, attacking, shooting, etc. He should evolve to be great at everything

This thread needs to go...

He's going to be a helluva recruiter... everybody knows him. I'm with you here... he's our guy... let's never discuss this again.

The 76ers priority should be Simmons not Embiid or Butler.

Embiid should be the priority and it's not really close. He is already a star player and improving. He is by far their best player.

 

[Hekate]

Wut? Embiid is so much better than Simmons and has much more potential. Simmons pretty much plateaued already. Like, seriously, what did he improve in his game since his rookie season?

Which rookie season?

Really? This logic applied to Mitchell ain't a great take.

Really? This logic applied to Mitchell ain't a great take.

Only a blind would not see improvement in Mitchell's game.

 

[Jack Strop]

Cuz what we really need is another player who can't shoot.

Great game by Simmons. Better than Mitchell.

Great game by Simmons. Better than Mitchell.

Let’s pretend the Jazz barley hang on and beat NY by 3 and Donovan drops that line. Give me your response to his performance.
