    Am i crazy for wanting Ben Simmons?

    Add Simmons and Claxton for Dame and Nurk with a buncha picks and we might win more games than last yr.

    Think it just fits our roster as constructed if he can figure out that he's a hooper.

    I think we get a 10% AARP discount on him though, so it's worth it.

    Reath looks like a taller and less athletic Zach Randolph........ which is hilarious.
