I bet we could get IT out of retirement and he would easily average more than 4 points a game. The only way Simmons should be on the Celtics is if it is on the Maine Celtics.
This would be awful. It would be the equivalent of getting Harden. Neither player is a winner. Keep the roster the same. If fully healthy, there isn’t a team in the entire league that can beat the Celtics in a 7-game series. ☘️☘️☘️
No it wouldn't. Harden won multiple games in boston during the 2023 playoffs off of his vigor alone. That series goes on embiid for choking. Harden is a winning player whether people like it or not. Ben Simmons will be a great 11th man for the boston celtics.
@ Not as far as talent. Harden exceeds Simmons by a mile in that department. I’m talking about being a winner. Elevating your team. And me as a Celtics fan, wanting him on my team they are equal in those departments.
Big mistake. Only very solid teams have repeated championship. My loved Celtics is very similar to Bucks, Denver. Atlanta, Cleveland, Bucks are danger for us this season
Worse. Harden can at least play. The only way this makes sense is if the celtics pay him a league minimum 2 way contract and immediately send him to Maine. Simmons is not an NBA player anymore.
John Karalis on Ben Simmons: “The notion that the Boston Celtics can trade for Ben Simmons, first all of, complete crap. No chance, the Celtics are a second apron team, so they can do neither of these things that are being proposed. They can not aggregate 3 or 4 players. It has to be a one for one, you can take back multiple players but you can not send out multiple players…”
exactly, not sure where this should come from, it doesn't fit talent-wise, character-wise nor financially. So, attention grabbing luke warm air. Only attraction would be he'd come with multiple 1st rounders. Nets not to win anything big in near future, so 25, 27, 29 1st and 26+ pick swap, this could be interesting, then buy him out, so having some lottery picks for 40M...? but still with 2nd apron doesn't work I think.
If Ben Simmons Buy out contract to Brooklyn Nets & sign Boston VET. MINIMUM why not Ben10 still GREAT DEFENDER, TRANSITION Play still great playmaker 💪🔥💪
Why not?: Simmons is a total distraction. Simmons is scared to shoot the ball. Simmons scared of the limelight. Simmons is injured. Stevens has his team talent and team chemistry set for the season. Stevens' system is stocking the team so everyone on the floor can shoot the ball, thus disabling opponent's ability to double-team Tatum even before he gets the ball. Simmons doesn't match that roster construction IN ANY FASHION. There is no room for him on the bench (Stevens love his current roster). There are no minutes available for him as the Celt's lineup (both regular season and playoffs) is set for the season. Barring a major injury, and probably not even then, Stevens isn't making any in-season trades that involve his top 11 contracts: JT JB Zing White Holiday Horford PP Hauser Kornet Queta Tillman That team is set for the season. Live or die, win or lose, championship or bust, that is the roster that Stevens wanted, went out and got it, and is going to ride till the end. All the other stuff posted between now and the playoffs is just incidental white noise.
They literally can't sign him even at the minimum this season if he is bought out. It's not allowed under the CBA with where the C's are in the 2nd apron. Trading JB is 100% the only way to get him here this season
This is a stupid conversation all the way thru. Simmons, the player, brings LITERALLY "LESS THAN NO VALUE" to any basketball team. He seems like a decent dude, but from a team perspective, and a basketball perspective, he drags his entire organization down with him. People are COMPLETE M0R0NS to think Stevens spent even one second contemplating that disaster. Stevens got reamed out by Danny bringing in Kancer Kyrie, and he will NEVER do that to his coach.
Ben Simmons next year on the Cs on a veteran minimum is interesting. A big, playmaking, defensive minded guard that can defend 1-4 is not a bad idea, if he decides to play like the Ben Simmons of old to revitalize his career. What's an even more interesting idea for this trade deadline is a Springer for Filipowski trade. A big who can stretch the floor, on a relatively team friendly, rookie scale contract for the next few years and can add depth to the Cs center rotation now and when Big Al decides to retire next season.
Dude, if you ever get anything correct, I'm going to venmo you $20 just for you years of fruitless, uneducated, effort to spew enough random stuff to accidentally get one correct. So far, just like these TH-cam threads, BR, HH, CD, and all the other clueless threads, you are zero for your lifetime. Brad Stevens WILL NEVER bring that guy into his locker room, EVER, EVER, EVER. EVER. EVER.
Maybe Ben Simmons coming into a championship team and playing for a Legendary franchise, and seeing how Tatum and Brown Lead us, will install some fight in him and some HEART. maybe Mazzula can tap into what's left of him. Go Cz
And maybe when Putin wakes up in the morning he'll realize that he shouldn't have started a war in Ukraine, apologize, and offer to help rebuild the country. Oh, and don't forget to put that tooth under your pillow tonight and in the morning check under that for your $2.00.
Too many players have bought in and have proven results with a championship. There are things Ben can do that can improve the team and if acquiring him is possible (likely not without giving up much) then do it. He can’t shoot, but he’s a 6’10 PG that can push the paint, facilitate, and grab boards. I don’t think he can poison the well like he did with those other dysfunctional organizations. If he doesn’t cooperate then you drop his ass.
Maybe they take ben simmons in the 2025 offseason after they win back to back championships because not even the Thunder can beat the Celtics in a 7 game series.
The only team on that list dumm enough to gum up their team with Simmons, is the Knicks. The other teams aren't much smarter, but that are at least that smart.
I think he'll fit well with the 2nd unit, he can control the the office just as good if not better than PP and his drive ability and finishing at the rim can be a+ for our shooters. We don't necessarily need his scoring he can rebound and facilitate the ball. Of course he can't shoot but let's not forget the guy averaged 25 ppg at the rim in Philly so he could be a+. And i trust brad and Joe to use him to our advantage
The only way I would say okay is if it's a small trade and Ben comes in and plays to his attributes which is slashing catching lobs and and passing as a big
I would love ben sim on the team balling with the j's I made a post 2 years ago about him joining the team, the j's would love balling with Ben...plus he is getting his confidence back dude would be a walking triple dub easy on this team the j's would get a pass first 6'9 playmaker and defender sign me up for big Ben this would be a triple threat Tatum, Ben, jaylen 💪
It"s dicey but I think it can work. Having a 6.9 proven shot creator who can play defense and rebound can have a positive impact on the 2nd unit or the first. We don"t have an abundance of shot creators. If Simmons is on the floor with a tall linup along with PP, KP, Horfort, Tatum or Jalen, Simmon's shot creation for those shooters would be scary. Simmons can be a very good piece in the mix when used properly. I trust Brad's judgement on this acquisition.
Its a rumor and Danny Ainge once said that 99% of rumors are NOT true! It's not bad news it's a rumor... Why would they do that? I think Brad knows that he sucks!
First time I saw Pritchard play as a rookie he reminded me of Mark Price, I see Simmons as a Dennis Rodman type point guard...hang in there you'll get it
WTF? You see a guy who is too scared to actually be on the court and too scared to shoot even when the team is begging him to shoot, and you compare that to the uber-confident, "in-the-limelight", emotionally enraged, Rodman? You people are so dumm. Simmons and Rodman the same? Dude, you need a brain scan. I'm worried for you. Please have that check-out. Coach: "Hey Rodman, we need 20 rebounds tonight, and you have to antagonize Malone and get him thrown out of the game". Rodman: "Ok coach. I'll destroy them!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rebound! Rebound! Rebound!" Coach: "Hey Simmons, I need you to score 6 points tonight". Simmons: "I don't know coach. I don't really feel like playing tonight. I don't really want to shoot the ball anyway. Can I just sit on the bench and watch? I get paid the same either way, and if I sit on the bench all game I don't have to take a shower after the game."
We tried this vibe with Kyrie - chemistry matters - dumb dumbs will hate my message the same way they hated me when I said Kyrie will effect chemistry - hard pass - proven commodity beyond and any doubt: Ben Simmons
Nah. look at his strengths. defense and playmaking. Sixers and Brooklyn expected too much from him and he showed he couldn't deliver being the #2 or #3. Put him in Boston and he's the fourth guy off he bench at best. He will be surrounded by shooters which would be great for him. This would be a good addition if he's bought out because 1. We won't have to pay much to get him, don't need to trade anyone. And 2. If he ends up being a bum, they can just waive him without paying much. Oh and 3. Boston is the best place to revive his career. He doesn't improve here, he won't improve anywhere else. So his career would be on the line.
Have to also wonder why KD , Kyrie , Harden , Bridges & Simmons didn’t work in Brooklyn . Sgit may need to just get outta there like everyone else to get back to Philly Ben
@danielpaquet3963 Porzingis is back next year. Kornet is a free agent but he has a nice role in Boston. So, KP, Kessler and Kornet would be a nice big combo. I think Big Al hangs it up after this year.
Ben Simmons has a big potential for basketball He is another Magic Jhonson playmaker who has not find the right way to become what is supposed to be He could be a great trade for Celtics
HEY, ALLIE. Can you address the brief stories that I’ve read about Jason Tatum (& then another about Jru Holiday!) failing a PED drug test? What’s happening?? Please tell me it’s just a baseless rumor.
I don't this would be someone the C's would be interested in. Simmons is a talent who is just damaged and tainted. Too risky for any team. Thanks for debunking this, Allie.
A colossal Giant B, dude is a head case, he's making so much $ because he was a high pick and his first 2 years he was decent, until he got afraid and stopped shooting. NO WAY IN HELL
I mean i don't want him but he's a good defender, he a good passer, just not good shooter but if he don't pass up a clearly open layup, needs work on his free throws. And if they did sign def come off the bench and change his position sf not at point for sure.
Im with you Allie , I would show the same disgust over the mere thought of bringing someone like Ben Simmons over to the Squad .. no need to apologize , its a bad joke
Stop he'd be great for the C's, he could play all five positions and they struggle against Curry, SGA... he'd be great for perimeter defense if the price is right he'd fit in perfectly 👌
Oh no they can’t let this happen ! Bringing him to Boston will be the worst thing to do ! We will have the same problems with him just like we did Kyre or worse
Big NO for Simmons. Our roster is composed of players that can shoot 3s minus Queta and Luke. Rest, no problem of shooting from down town. At least, confident enough to take a 3. Simmons? nah. please do not do this Brad. Not this season. We are trying to win back2back.
The problem is that the roster is set for the season, but these guys need BS content between now and the playoffs to generate clicks for commissions. The "clicks for commission" thing is ok. They need to get paid for their work. But since there is nothing between now and the playoffs, except for the games themselves, they have to create this D&G content. I hate it because they all do work really hard at producing these videos, but since they don't understand the NBA business model, the content ends up being just drivel to fill time, and so they get desperate and do crazy videos that have no basis in truth.
Let’s not get in a panic state of mind! If we get Ben and use him strictly for playmaking and defense….he would fit PERFECTLY in Coach Joey’s system 💯💯💯
Please please don't even entertain the thought. As a Celtics fan getting rid of Jalen Brown for a Draymond Green level player is absolute insanity ! 🤮🤮🤮
@ trade for Ben? HELL NO! But if he came on a minimum contract?…that’s okay plus he will have to earn his keep knowing he can be cut at anytime would motivate him to keep his head in the game
He is never healthy why TF would we want him???? Do you know anything about Ben Simmons? He's played like 100 games in the past 4-5 seasons, his averages are trash. Basically everyone on the team can shoot 3s, his career average is like 13%. He does not fit, plain and simple
@@samiko3000 bro if he just came on the team right now with 0 changes he's like tillman level on the bench, 8th or 9th option maybe. Dudes trash and we don't want him
@qt3dot14ish I hope so. He wasting his talent in G-league. For sure Celtics don't need him because they have too many guards. I'm sure some team lack of guards will sign him next season
Bol Bol back up KP. KP health is a liability. Ben does not fit our roster in anyway. I wouldn’t trade anyone on our roster for Ben. And yes Ben is a bust for what was expected of him.

Are you stupid? Really? How stupid are you? You can't send a veteran player to the g-league. You people just keep finding new ways to demonstrate stupidity.
Simmons can be on a non guaranteed contract. Cut him immediately no loss. Of course he doesn’t deserve it but keep his ass on a leash a tight leash. Plus keep him away from other teams. He may show up for them

Simmons surrounded by 3 point shooters sounds deadly
I would rather bring Blake Griffin back out of retirement than take on Ben Simmons! ☘️
I bet we could get IT out of retirement and he would easily average more than 4 points a game. The only way Simmons should be on the Celtics is if it is on the Maine Celtics.
He was a great locker room guy. We don’t need the talent. Just a garbage man with good attitude.
I actually wouldn't mind this.
This would be awful. It would be the equivalent of getting Harden. Neither player is a winner.
Keep the roster the same. If fully healthy, there isn’t a team in the entire league that can beat the Celtics in a 7-game series.
☘️☘️☘️
No it wouldn't. Harden won multiple games in boston during the 2023 playoffs off of his vigor alone. That series goes on embiid for choking. Harden is a winning player whether people like it or not. Ben Simmons will be a great 11th man for the boston celtics.
You think Ben Simmons is on the same level as James harden?
@ Not as far as talent. Harden exceeds Simmons by a mile in that department. I’m talking about being a winner. Elevating your team. And me as a Celtics fan, wanting him on my team they are equal in those departments.
Big mistake. Only very solid teams have repeated championship. My loved Celtics is very similar to Bucks, Denver.
Atlanta, Cleveland, Bucks are danger for us this season
Worse. Harden can at least play. The only way this makes sense is if the celtics pay him a league minimum 2 way contract and immediately send him to Maine. Simmons is not an NBA player anymore.
If Ben is content with 10 mins a game no complaining n totally bought in i wouldnt mind seeing him quarterback Lil PP and Hauser. Lets Go Cs ☘️
Is Ben Simmons an NBA bust? Type ‘B’ for Bust if you agree

He’s trash and his heart is smaller than the grinch.

Knicks fan here. I come in peace ✌🏿Are you afraid of what's coming? 🤜🏼💥🤕🍀
If Ben Simmons Buy out contract to Brooklyn Nets & sign Boston VET. MINIMUM why not Ben10 still GREAT DEFENDER, TRANSITION Play still great playmaker 💪🔥💪
Others won't understand what ben Simmons can bring
Why not?:
Simmons is a total distraction.
Simmons is scared to shoot the ball.
Simmons scared of the limelight.
Simmons is injured.
Stevens has his team talent and team chemistry set for the season.
Stevens' system is stocking the team so everyone on the floor can shoot the ball, thus disabling opponent's ability to double-team Tatum even before he gets the ball. Simmons doesn't match that roster construction IN ANY FASHION.
There is no room for him on the bench (Stevens love his current roster).
There are no minutes available for him as the Celt's lineup (both regular season and playoffs) is set for the season.
Barring a major injury, and probably not even then, Stevens isn't making any in-season trades that involve his top 11 contracts:
JT
JB
Zing
White
Holiday
Horford
PP
Hauser
Kornet
Queta
Tillman
That team is set for the season. Live or die, win or lose, championship or bust, that is the roster that Stevens wanted, went out and got it, and is going to ride till the end.
All the other stuff posted between now and the playoffs is just incidental white noise.
I agree. Get him for the minimum.
Yeah plus he's in a losing environment maybe he'll be motivated @vdoc2760
They literally can't sign him even at the minimum this season if he is bought out. It's not allowed under the CBA with where the C's are in the 2nd apron. Trading JB is 100% the only way to get him here this season
This would be a perfect fit for the celtics off the bench. The man can play.
Ben Simmons would never play for Boston. Get real
Yup thats too much responsibility for him
This is a stupid conversation all the way thru.
Simmons, the player, brings LITERALLY "LESS THAN NO VALUE" to any basketball team.
He seems like a decent dude, but from a team perspective, and a basketball perspective, he drags his entire organization down with him.
People are COMPLETE M0R0NS to think Stevens spent even one second contemplating that disaster.
Stevens got reamed out by Danny bringing in Kancer Kyrie, and he will NEVER do that to his coach.
He wants a ring so yeah he would definitely would be interested.
I don’t think Brad or Joe wants to fuss with the chemistry - why bring everyone back to trade? Let’s go Celtics! 🏆☘️
Brad won't sign a quitter, and Simmons Is THE definition of a quitter.
Ben Simmons next year on the Cs on a veteran minimum is interesting. A big, playmaking, defensive minded guard that can defend 1-4 is not a bad idea, if he decides to play like the Ben Simmons of old to revitalize his career.

Maybe in our G-league. You saw how he was in Philly his last year, immature. We dont want anyone like that on our 15 man roster
Dude, if you ever get anything correct, I'm going to venmo you $20 just for you years of fruitless, uneducated, effort to spew enough random stuff to accidentally get one correct.
So far, just like these TH-cam threads, BR, HH, CD, and all the other clueless threads, you are zero for your lifetime.

EVER.
EVER.
HELL NOOO 😂☘️ we don’t want no Ben Simmons lol
Knicks fan here. I come in peace ✌🏿Are you afraid of what's coming? 🤜🏼💥🤕🍀
I want him
🅱️ Ben Simmons is the definition of a red flag 🚩, we do not need him or want his broke play making ability like him he is a liability 🗣️
"A red flag"? That guy has already burned down 3 different rosters on two different teams.
He's not a red flag, he's a team arsonist.
Ben, what I'd rather bring back Larry Bird. Please don't give Celtics high blood pressure.
My blood pressure got higher at the prospect of this then the threat of a global war fr 😖
Maybe Ben Simmons coming into a championship team and playing for a Legendary franchise, and seeing how Tatum and Brown Lead us, will install some fight in him and some HEART. maybe Mazzula can tap into what's left of him. Go Cz
He’s had plenty of chances to do that and has failed. He’s a classic head case and won’t even attempt a 3 and is a very poor free throw shooter.
And maybe when Putin wakes up in the morning he'll realize that he shouldn't have started a war in Ukraine, apologize, and offer to help rebuild the country.
Oh, and don't forget to put that tooth under your pillow tonight and in the morning check under that for your $2.00.
Simons is in the wrong team and coach. If he joins the Celtics, his playmaking and rebounding will be useful.
Too many players have bought in and have proven results with a championship. There are things Ben can do that can improve the team and if acquiring him is possible (likely not without giving up much) then do it. He can’t shoot, but he’s a 6’10 PG that can push the paint, facilitate, and grab boards. I don’t think he can poison the well like he did with those other dysfunctional organizations. If he doesn’t cooperate then you drop his ass.
Ben Simmons/ Bust
We dont even want him at the Sydney Kings
BetOnline odds for Ben Simmons:
Boston Celtics: +150
Cleveland Cavaliers: +200
New York Knicks: +350
Phoenix Suns: +450
Indiana Pacers: +600
Maybe they take ben simmons in the 2025 offseason after they win back to back championships because not even the Thunder can beat the Celtics in a 7 game series.

Wow, YOU GUYS ARE SO TOTALLY CLUELESS.
It"s dicey but I think it can work. Having a 6.9 proven shot creator who can play defense and rebound can have a positive impact on the 2nd unit or the first.

I'd rather not change the current lineup.
Hell no ben simmons
Would rather smart if there's a way
No deal for Ben Simmons Boston Celtics Team Don't want Ben Simmons
Fake news
No no no no Brad Stevens
Save your breath. Stevens will stop laughing at these ldiots at some point.
Yall trippin!! Ben would def bolster our roster! Rebounds, defends & has amazing vision! We don’t need him to score!
Your so right Ali we don't want him Celtics have a solid team right now
Surely it was meant to be a joke.
Great defense great fast break leader you need players that don’t want to shoot the ball might not be a bad fit
We tried this vibe with Kyrie - chemistry matters - dumb dumbs will hate my message the same way they hated me when I said Kyrie will effect chemistry - hard pass - proven commodity beyond and any doubt: Ben Simmons
Ben Simmons?!?! Don’t you do that, Ricky Bobby! Don’t you put that evil on us!
No chance!!! Ben Simmons won't play back to back.
Nah. look at his strengths. defense and playmaking. Sixers and Brooklyn expected too much from him and he showed he couldn't deliver being the #2 or #3. Put him in Boston and he's the fourth guy off he bench at best. He will be surrounded by shooters which would be great for him. This would be a good addition if he's bought out because 1.

Boston is the best place to revive his career. He doesn't improve here, he won't improve anywhere else. So his career would be on the line.
I’m good with it. As long as he doesn’t shoot the ball, we’d be fine. He misses layups.
Trading Ben Summons to the C's?
For heaven's sake, NO, NO, NO!!
Have to also wonder why KD , Kyrie , Harden , Bridges & Simmons didn’t work in Brooklyn . Sgit may need to just get outta there like everyone else to get back to Philly Ben
This would work only if...Horford retires, they trade Queta and Springer for Kessler, and he signs for the minimum.
or if they didn't have Horford, Porzingis or Quetta.
@danielpaquet3963 Porzingis is back next year. Kornet is a free agent but he has a nice role in Boston. So, KP, Kessler and Kornet would be a nice big combo. I think Big Al hangs it up after this year.
That's all irrelevant and pure drivel.
Stevens will NEVER acquire Simmons to be a participant, in any fashion, for the Celts.
Ben Simmons has a big potential for basketball
He is another Magic Jhonson playmaker who has not find the right way to become what is supposed to be
He could be a great trade for Celtics
HEY, ALLIE. Can you address the brief stories that I’ve read about Jason Tatum (& then another about Jru Holiday!) failing a PED drug test? What’s happening?? Please tell me it’s just a baseless rumor.
Boston should increase his salary and offer Ben Simons $55 million / year
I think you are on the wrong thread. The Caitlin Clark thread is over there>
I dont care if Ben Simmons will not become a Celtics. He still struggling mentally.
I don't this would be someone the C's would be interested in. Simmons is a talent who is just damaged and tainted. Too risky for any team.
Thanks for debunking this, Allie.
A colossal Giant B, dude is a head case, he's making so much $ because he was a high pick and his first 2 years he was decent, until he got afraid and stopped shooting. NO WAY IN HELL
I mean i don't want him but he's a good defender, he a good passer, just not good shooter but if he don't pass up a clearly open layup, needs work on his free throws. And if they did sign def come off the bench and change his position sf not at point for sure.
Im with you Allie , I would show the same disgust over the mere thought of bringing someone like Ben Simmons over to the Squad .. no need to apologize , its a bad joke
Angel, you can chill. Brad Stevens did not endorse this thread!
NO The Celtics don’t want Ben Simmons we don’t like him either 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Stop he'd be great for the C's, he could play all five positions and they struggle against Curry, SGA... he'd be great for perimeter defense if the price is right he'd fit in perfectly 👌
Oh no they can’t let this happen ! Bringing him to Boston will be the worst thing to do ! We will have the same problems with him just like we did Kyre or worse
Big NO for Simmons. Our roster is composed of players that can shoot 3s minus Queta and Luke. Rest, no problem of shooting from down town. At least, confident enough to take a 3. Simmons? nah. please do not do this Brad. Not this season. We are trying to win back2back.
These doom and gloom video titles stress me out! Please don’t start doing this every video, love your content ☘️
The problem is that the roster is set for the season, but these guys need BS content between now and the playoffs to generate clicks for commissions. The "clicks for commission" thing is ok. They need to get paid for their work.
But since there is nothing between now and the playoffs, except for the games themselves, they have to create this D&G content.
I hate it because they all do work really hard at producing these videos, but since they don't understand the NBA business model, the content ends up being just drivel to fill time, and so they get desperate and do crazy videos that have no basis in truth.
No WHY what does he bring to improve the team
Let’s not get in a panic state of mind! If we get Ben and use him strictly for playmaking and defense….he would fit PERFECTLY in Coach Joey’s system 💯💯💯
Please please don't even entertain the thought. As a Celtics fan getting rid of Jalen Brown for a Draymond Green level player is absolute insanity ! 🤮🤮🤮
@ trade for Ben? HELL NO! But if he came on a minimum contract?…that’s okay plus he will have to earn his keep knowing he can be cut at anytime would motivate him to keep his head in the game
He is never healthy why TF would we want him???? Do you know anything about Ben Simmons? He's played like 100 games in the past 4-5 seasons, his averages are trash. Basically everyone on the team can shoot 3s, his career average is like 13%. He does not fit, plain and simple
get him to play with the bench players not as a starter he gonna shrink the court cuz he can’t shoot
@@samiko3000 bro if he just came on the team right now with 0 changes he's like tillman level on the bench, 8th or 9th option maybe. Dudes trash and we don't want him
Off the bench he’s a good fit.
if simons sacrifice his net worth, i like simmons on the bench with my celtics team without sacrificing bench like Pritchard an houser
B B B B B B B!!!🤬🤬🤬
JD Javison is way better than ben simmons
I don't know who JD Javison is, but JD Davidson will be gone from the Celtic's organization after this season.
@qt3dot14ish I hope so. He wasting his talent in G-league. For sure Celtics don't need him because they have too many guards. I'm sure some team lack of guards will sign him next season
Simmons off them bench would be awesome your talking about the celtics coaching staff not Philadelphia wakk coaching
We can only get him if he agrees to vet minimum… we are a 2nd apron team. So it’s not happening.
BOSTON can turn anyone into supah stars again!!!
Bol Bol back up KP. KP health is a liability. Ben does not fit our roster in anyway. I wouldn’t trade anyone on our roster for Ben. And yes Ben is a bust for what was expected of him.
I hear this guy can score 45 points average.
You gotta move that decimal. It's 4.5.

She does not want him in a boat. ... she does not want him near her goat....
lol Celtics can’t even sign him they capped
Big No
No thank you!
NO, don't think he will/can add to the locker room - PASS!!
Definitely a Bust and a Buster......
No I do not want Boston to go get Ben Simmons that would be the worst mistake they ever made Ben Simmons can stay away yet or just as a free agent and nobody going to pick them up anyway
Id get back smart
This is a big nothing burger. Even if the Celtics got Ben Simmons for free I'd send him down to the G league or trade him for a future 2nd round pick.
Are you stupid? Really? How stupid are you? You can't send a veteran player to the g-league.
You people just keep finding new ways to demonstrate stupidity.
who would want him besides the vet min.......
Philadelphia broke ben simmons
I'll stop watching the C's, Boston fans don't want Simmons
Give us Benny Boy!!!
Simmons can be on a non guaranteed contract. Cut him immediately no loss. Of course he doesn’t deserve it but keep his ass on a leash a tight leash. Plus keep him away from other teams. He may show up for them
I don’t want him on the Celtics keep the current roster the same Ben Simmons is completely trash
What the actual f***. Bro no
Simmons?! F that …
We have all we need....besides he didnt do anything to desserve to be on this championship team....hell nooo
Not for Jay brown nope bye Ben let's go Boston
No no no for Simon
Joe can fix him
Bad dream fellows. Never, no, nope, x, not, won't, don't, shouldn't,😠
No thank you. No no no no no.
