Ben Simmons for James Harden
From all indications, if I had to make an educated guess, this is probably a deal that gets made during the offseason – and that’s might be, at this point, a best-case scenario for the Philadelphia 76ers.
If their end game is to land Harden, what’s the point in waiting for the offseason? This might be a good time to visit this possibility, especially considering that the Brooklyn Nets are in some kind of funk without Kevin Durant.
Simmons would get his new start with the Nets (with a lot of pressure taken off him with Durant in the picture) and Harden gets reunited with Daryl Morey as he attempts to win a championship next to Joel Embiid with the Sixers.
