From the minute the Sixers won the Ben Simmons sweepstakes, two questions arose: Do the Sixers actually want Simmons at #1, and will Simmons willingly play here? The answer to the former seems a likely yes with every new report that comes out. The overhyped latter? That’s looking good too:

It’s gone from “Lakers or Bust” to not minding Philadelphia. I’m sure any young hotshot wants to live in LA over Philly. Hell, half of the old no-shots wanna live there too. But I’ll happily take Simmons having “no problem” playing here, sneaker money be damned.
