He kills us because we gave away draft picks in 2014 for in his mind an overpaid player, because the 2014 draft is the best draft in the history of drafts. He then kills the Celtics for acquiring picks in the very same draft by dumping overpaid players.


I don't think you have been reading anything from Simmons lately. He is backing and accepted everything Boston has done this offseason. He is even pushing them to trade Rondo. His beef with Rivers was because he said that Rivers kept changing his story and basically called him a liar (which Rivers was). That's what caused all the drama.

Simmons knows his stuff. There is no arguing that.


I agree with everything he said. I don't get our moves at all. Whoever thinks that Gordon and Evans are movable contracts is totally delusional. We are stuck with both now (especially if their numbers take a dive this season)..

I totally agree with that. Whoever said that Evans was signed to a movable deal is nuts. If Gordon was movable, he'd have been moved last season. They did not sign Evans to a deal, thinking to themselves, "Selves, if this doesn't work, we just trade him. No problem" The Pelicans are pot stuck on this group in the backcourt.

But, at some point, you have to pot stick yourself to someone. You can't just coast and suck and tank and draft and coast and suck and tank and draft. Again, when you do that, you are the Wizards. Simmons wants us to keep on sucking untill we get that gem in the lottery. Well, that happened last year. We got that gem, now its time to make a move.

Dude, if Andrea Bargnani can be traded surely Gordon/Evans can be moved.
