Simmons has an additional season left and is owed $78m total.

Why would Portland buy that out if they could just take Kyle Lowry instead who is expiring?

Brooklyn owes most of their picks to Houston from the Harden trade, so they can’t really do that.

Portland probably still wants Mikal Bridges but Brooklyn won’t want to send him out for the same reason… they don’t control their picks so they can’t benefit from tanking.

It’s to match salaries so Portland can get a bunch of picks, they’ll probably buy him out.
Guess he'll end up in Dallas with Luka and Kyrie. Makes about as much sense. Can we get Harden too. How many cancers can we get?
They can teach Luka how to be a talented player that's never happy.

I could be ashamed of Simmons behavior, since he was once a Tiger, but it probably shows why the team wasn't good enough to make the NCAA's.

Simmons claiming "mental illness" looks like some bs on the surface. But dude obviously got issues. Think about it ...dudes got talent, money, fame,youth,pussy etc at his disposal. Yet he's afraid to shoot.Its frickin sad in a way
