Message: [QUOTE="Chuck, post: 4196391, member: 1646"] Crap, does that mean I have to root for the Nets now? Two of the best players in the world... and two of the hardest guys to root for (more Kyrie... I don't really dislike Durant). It was hard enough pulling for the Sixers. If Simmons isn't having major mental health issues, I think Brooklyn crushed this trade. Simmons can be awesome with Kryie and Durant. Instead of 3 elite scorers that want the ball all the time, they swap out the one that can't/won't defend, with an elite athlete that doesn't like to shoot and plays great defense. AND they got a legit center, fantastic spot-up shooter and two first round picks for a guy who has a contract expiring? I'm thinking there may be more to the Simmons situation than he just didn't want to play in Philly. [/QUOTE]
