    Also it's always trippy to see hot women and realize they are in their 70's or 80's now. Time she comes for us all...No?

    NB said something like 'people will believe anything they read', so I tested the proposition.

    I remember sometime, probably in the 80's, my buddies and I had a debate about which band, The Rolling Stones or The Who, would do the best rendition of Sugar Sugar. Yeah, we'd been drinking

    ok...you're heading the metal direction

    could be, considering their rendition of We Gotta Get Out of this Place, that Jello Biafra should get the nod

    A lot of the Hard Rock groups i still like are hitting their 70's. Man! when i was in my teens, 70's seemed like total geezers. The well heeled do seem to age better though.

    I think the Stones, cause they had a cheesy vibe at times.

    Philly wouldn't give up Simmons & Curry for that package. Also, Wiseman backing up Embiid would have little value to them
    If they would though, Warriors would keep Draymond and just give the additional picks to Philly, cutting us out of the deal.
    If Toronto was willing to take CJ/DJJ/pick from us for Siakam, we should do that, independent of any other deal.

    IMO, more realistic is a framework sending Wiggins/Wiseman to TOR, Siakam here, Simmons to GSW, and CJ/Kuminga/Moody/(PDX)1st to PHI (if Morey moves off his Dame demand).

    That seems like a potential, even probable trade.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I don't see Golden State giving up all its young assets for Simmons when Simmons and Green are such a poor fit together. If Golden State could somehow swap Green for Simmons, with a small premium on top, I'm sure they'd do that, but since Philadelphia almost certainly wouldn't agree to that, it seems like trying to get Golden State into a Simmons deal wouldn't really work.

    I mean, even though Simmons is a much better player in a vacuum than Wiggins, one could reasonably argue that Wiggins is a far better fit for Golden State, since he can shoot in addition to being a versatile defender.
