A report from our good friend John Barchard:
Hearing that Simmons CT scan didn't go as planned today and his season is very much in doubt #Sixers

“[Insert player name]’s scan shows a fracture and they’re unsure if it’s new or old,” might as well we on the team’s letterhead at this point. And if we’re to believe this is true, it becomes apparent that this image from Ben Simmons’ Snapchat isn’t Ben being bummed about his bud Nerlens being traded:

I can’t imagine Bryan Colangelo’s mental state going into his 10:30 press conference – where he’ll have to defend the handling of Embiid, explain trading Nerlens, and now maybe break bad Simmons news – but I’m gonna feel bad for him only if Joshua Harris doesn’t drag his ass down from New York on a helicopter and answer some questions, because this all goes well beyond the GM.
When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
