ESPN's Best destinations for Ben Simmons

*Not the best odds but the best fit.
1) LAL (19.9% Lottery Odds)
2) NOP (11.9%)
3) BOS via Nets (15.6%)
4) MIN (6.3%)
5) PHI (25% + 2.8% from Kings)
6) WAS (.7%)
7) HOU (NONE)
8) PHO (8.8%)
9) IND (NONE)
10) POR (1%)
Poor Anthony Davis. He's one of the five best players in the league, but so far, general manager Dell Demps & Co. haven't figured out how to surround him with a supporting cast that propels the team into contention.
Simmons would change all of that, quickly. His passing ability would open up Davis' offensive game. You know Alvin Gentry -- who helped craft the Steve Nash-centric offense in Phoenix and the Stephen Curry-centric offense in Oakland -- can build systems around high-IQ basketball players who know how to pass.
A Davis-Simmons combo on the front line would be one of the scariest in the NBA. Getting the ball out of the hands of Tyreke Evans is an added bonus. And Simmons' being at LSU makes him a bit of a local hero.

Unless we have a total GM overhaul that quickly hires a new coach, this team is fricking dog shite.

Just some of the reasons why we should be tanking this year to get the best odds we can to get Simmons.
Add Simmons, get rid of Tyreke, if Anderson and Gordon doesn't fit in the plans, package them and acquire a pick for added depth and bring in a shooter that will knock down open looks from Simmons.

Simmons in a Pels uniform is wishful thinking. Only chance is to have that magic #1 ping pong ball pulled. (Which is possible) but still wishful thinking.
No trade involving Ben Simmons landing in New Orleans ends with AD still in New Orleans. Period. If you think other wise your crazy and blind.
It's nice to think about but the Pels better come up with a plan A to improve this teams defense with out killing the offense cause rolling the dice and counting on percentages aint a plan.

In a league that is based on pick and rolls and creating 1 on 1 matchups, I'm sure Ben Simmons will do just fine in the NBA.

Simmons, a rookie, would not get full control of any NBA teams off.
