    If by "Draymond Green role" you mean pass the ball and play defense, sure... Simmons can do that. But Draymond Green is a leader. He's aggressive, mentally tough, and passionate. Thats why he succeeds in his role. Simmons on the otherhand, well.... maybe he'll work on that during the off-season. 🙄

    The leverage for sixers was lost in timing. They wanted Harden now instead of trying to maneuver to get him during off-season. Offseason would of increased sixers leverage bc nets wouldn’t want harden to walk & get nothing in return. So sixers needed it more thus had to give up more

    Love the part where you mentioned the value over talent. Which is essentially just fit over talent.

    I see no reason for a Opposing Team definitely within the Playoffs to leave or not double team Kyrie or especially Kevin Durant while Ben Simmons who can't only not shoot, but is scare to death to shoot while on the floor.
    You think Westbrook ruin A.D & LeBron dominance on offense (in Westbrook case defense just as much). Watch how harder Ben Simmons make it for Durant & Kyrie on offense.
    Durant, Kyrie and James Harden playing Point was offensively unstoppable and the league is lucky they couldn't play more games together, but Embiid & Harden if no injuries happen to them will be great fit too.

    Overall, the Nets lose. Lebron might've formed super teams to win, Durant needs a super team to win. A diva, space traveling point guard in Kyrie who plays part time and a soft assed Ben Simmons. No clear leaders. Every player on the Nets including an average-everywhere-he-goes Drummond are all followers. Durant is no leader, Kyrie doesn't care enough and Ben Simmons is scared. Seth might finally get a chance to put up some Steph numbers and show his range, because he will be the star of the show if he wants it. I agree about the 76ers though. Harden is closing in on his last chances to win and now that half the damn league has seemingly sided with Durant/James when they clowned him, I'm not sure who would want to play with him if it all fails in Philly.

    Even if the nets were healthy, it’s entirely possible they coulda rolled through the east and won a chip….however a fully healthy nets team has a completely different dynamic than the nets team the bucks played so it’s also entirely possible the bucks still win, especially since the big 3 only played 16 games together….and no this is not the same as tha 2017 GSW, that team had 2 top 5 player and 2 other all stars plus they were very versatile and had depth

His reputation will be tarnished beyond repair. He'll probably still get signed, sure. But I don't see a team winning with him. And honestly, I think there will be a clash between him and Embiid at some point.

    KD left GS because he wanted to play more iso ball and Kerr wouldn't allow it. Therefore, they clashed and KD walked around that last year in GS with a huge chip on his shoulder. It's what caused Draymond to call him out, and rightfully so. He was a distraction that last year. So, he left Curry, Klay and Dray to be with that hot mess Kyrie who is a constant distraction where ever he goes. A flat earther head case. Well, KD now has his opportunity to play iso ball. Kyrie wants to play iso too. We'll see that it can't win a championship and KD should have stayed in GS. Turns out, Wiggins hasn't been much of a drop off, and GS now has Kuminga, the "Future." KD made the biggest mistake of his young life.

Think if your man is usually doubling 1 of 2 superstar shooters on defense is it hard to get rebounds when not boxed out? Further more if you only have to focus on defense the entire game because of lack of talent shouldn’t you be a decent defender. I also believe hes talked himself into best defender conversations 😂

Without Dray there would be no Curry, at least with the numbers and titles that they both have. Green has to take more shots like he did during that first title run. He was a triple double machine back then. I don't think that he's afraid to shoot and get fouled like Simmons is. In fact, DRay is a pretty good free throw shooter.
