if i had to pick a player to keep, id pick Embiid.
If I had to pick a player to trade, Id also pick Embiid. I think youd get more back for him.
People rightfully point to Embiids injury problems, but Simmons hasnt exactly been picture of health either
I also think that with Embiid, a lot of his flaws, namely attitude and conditioning, can be changed with the right coach.
The biggest problem I have with Simmons is that he appears to be mentally fragile. The boston crowd clearly got into his head in the playoffs a couple years ago, and now he wont even attempt jumpshots. You can call that a coaching problem all you want, but hes a grown man and knows what his flaws are, if he doesnt have the sac to start firing away in games bc of fear of embarrassment then thats pretty alarming
