This guy is completely unreliable to the point where it out weighs his talent. Passes on shot that could have advanced his team. Now he is a professional patient, not player.

He does not care about winning
Does he even care about basketball.
Mental health issues, I wish him the best, but these can derail a guy.
Always an excuse waiting to happen

Chances are we have a different opinion on what constitutes low value for Simmons. White + Timelord + Theis gets it done, salary-wise. It would suck to lose Timelord, but he'd be a terrible fit next to Simmons on the offensive side of the ball. We'd have to trade him in a different deal anyway.
Simmons didn't play at all last year. Timelord is way more valuable to us than not playing Ben in terms of being a defensive anchor. He also cannot shot nor spread the floor. He is a great defender, passer and driver with zero heart. I would take Rob heart any day of week over, Simmons
He has been on two different franchises now, same problems. He has the same problems at LSU in terms of not even making the NCAAs. This is clearly a pattern not a problem.He is a Klutch Sports guy too, which means he is not coming here. So zero chance of this happening.
