 Ben Simmons for What collection of players and picks gets a deal done?

I’ve been in the Ingram camp all year but I’m not a blind fool and I realize Ben is the Top Prospect on most GM and Scout Big Boards, I don’t necessarily want to trade The Top Pick but hear alot of chatter on here concerning Simmons’ interest in playing for LA or Boston…

What would be the best deal for Ben Simmons you could see being offered?

2 Deals I’d think about pulling the trigger on…

1. Simmons to LA for Ingram and Clarkson(S&T)

2. Simmons to Phoenix for Booker, Bledsoe and #4 (Bender or Brown)

 

What do you think, would Philly even consider trading Ben Simmons on The Night of The Draft???

As a Laker fan, I’d pull the trigger in a heartbeat for scenario #1, however, I think if I’m Philly I like the Suns deal better.  Plus, there’s always Boston out there with a crapload of assets.

Philly doesnt have that much leverage over LA because the Lakers know that Ingram is a better fit…and who they really want.

If Philly waits til draft night and selects Simmons…Lakers get leverage knowing they own the 76ers preferred player and Philly then has a few roster problems that make them lose leverage in other trades to get wing players.

 

Philly cant trade before draft night because the Lakers wont play their hand. Either Simmons falls to #2 for free, or their bargaining power increases once Philly takes Simmons. They dont want him there….he doesnt want to be there. 

 

Lakers dont need to give up much, if anything to get Simmons.
