Original title: Famous mouth exposed Simmons and 76ers dead: do not go to training camp until the deal
On August 10th, Beijing time, American basketball celebrity Kendrick Perkins revealed today that Ben Simmons will fight to the end with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Perkins predicted, “Simons doesn’t plan to participate in the 76ers’ (new season) training camp at all. He is also going to stay at home until he is sure that he can leave Philadelphia.”
Subsequently, Perkins’s revelation was forwarded by the 76ers team reporter Joan Johnson, which also proved that his statement was not groundless.
After the Eagles reversal in the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, Ben Simmons was attacked by a flood of 76ers fans, and he was also identified as the culprit for the team’s early exit.
Simmons himself could not accept the accusations from the outside world. Therefore, since the end of the season, he has not returned to the 76ers, nor has he contacted anyone on the team.
In this case, the probability of Philadelphia is to trade Simmons away. However, due to the fact that the 76ers asked too much in the Simmons deal negotiations, until now, the operation has not been too much.
Simmons is only 25 years old and is still at the best age of his career. Last season, his first maximum salary contract began to be implemented. At present, this contract has 4 years left. The new season’s annual salary will be 31.59 million US dollars.
Simmons is recognized as an all-around playmaker. Last season, he was also selected to the All-Defensive Team, but the only problem is that his shooting is too bad and he hasn’t made much progress over the years in the league. Especially in this year’s playoffs, Simmons’s weakness was completely exposed. Throughout the playoffs, his free throw percentage per game was only a dismal 34.2%.
At present, the 76ers are not in a hurry to sell Simmons, but because there have been precedents that Harden and others have created infighting in their old club before, the senior management in Philadelphia must also steadily advance this matter.
According to the wire report, what Philadelphia hopes most is undoubtedly Damian Lillard. “Since the end of the 76ers season, the team has been paying close attention to Lillard’s status in Portland. From the perspective of the 76ers, their The goal is not to trade Simmons, but to get Lillard.” (Poirot)Return to Sohu to see more
