    Also, anyone who ranks Ben Simmons as a star does not know basketball. The guy is completely useless in the 4th quarter. Can't believe Morey was too dumb to dump him for Harden. He's like Lamar Odom post-stroke and can't shoot.

    That should have been an easy call. It will never happen with Simmons and Embiid.

    I will say, in defense of not trading Simmons for Harden, Harden and Embiid is a defensive disaster. Harden will not fight through screens, you have to switch, and Embiid can’t switch.

    Harden isn’t as bad of a defender as he’s hyped up to be and can defend as a small ball 4. I watched a Zach Lowe or some other basketball nerd break it down.

    Simmons defense isn’t worth what Harden would bring on the offensive end.

    He is from LA and he wanted to go back. Are we condemning Lebron for winning in Cleveland then bouncing?

    Lebron is from Cleveland. And he did go back and win a ring for the old home town after losing in 07. He took them to 5 finals. Not a straight comparison
    My guy in Akron has requested a sit down.
