I think/hope Drew is just trolling with this story, but I hate him for publishing it:
Make no mistake about it, the Philadelphia 76ers ideal option at power forward is Ben Simmons on a buyout from the Brooklyn Nets. #BrotherlyLove | @drewmsmith https://t.co/SSSC9qONXL

Under no circumstances should the Sixers bring back Ben Simmons. Not now, now ever. The guy is always injured, quit on the Sixers, and cares more about Call of Duty than basketball. And even if he was healthy, he still can’t shoot, can’t space the floor, and can’t hit free throws. He’d create the same problems we had when was actually healthy and playing alongside Joel Embiid and Jimmy Butler and whatever other 2nd round team the Sixers were throwing out there. No to Ben Simmons. Absolutely not.
