    Default Broussard & Cowherd: 76ers should trade Simmons for Paul

    Reason given is that Simmons doesn't work for Philly with current lineup but he would on OKC where Presti could build around him with shooters.

    OKC would trade Paul and some picks for Simmons.

    Why would Philly do this when they basically had a better version of Chris Paul already and they just let him walk for 7M?

    Chris Paul does not have as much trade value as Ben Simmons, especially given their contracts.

    Toward the end, Broussard says they Thunder could include Schroeder in the deal.

    Not sure how Philly has the cap space anyway, nor how many of those picks OKC just stockpiled they would ask for.

    OKC won't unload the picks just to move Paul, that doesn't even make sense.

    And if they throw in Schroeder, they REALLY can't make the money work.

    This is never going to happen. Ever.

    But getting Simmons back would be a nice building block. I'm sure OKC fans would be pretty stoked.

    But this is complete BS. No way Philly trades Simmons, right? Except this offseason is crazy, so who knows.

    if philly trades simmons, it's gotta be for someone at least as good as jrue and they want a pick back in that case too. cp3 at his contract isnt even worth a discussion.

    Don't ever listen to Broussard.

    The Sixers don't have enough money to match Paul...let alone Paul and another 15 million.

    Would it be possible if OKC buys Paul out?

    I don't know why they would, but if Presti could sell the owner on getting Simmons to keep fans in the seats, then possibly?

    No, if OKC buys Paul out, he can go anywhere he wants.

    And I'm not even sure a wink wink deal like that is even allowed, assuming Paul WANTED to cooperate.
