Wow, I'm doing this on the fly as well -- this has been 24 hours of active internal debate! I know I'm going to have to justify this pick, but I can't shake that although there are other great options available, the truly best talent (and fit, despite what I said yesterday about shooting) is the highly controversial, incredibly talented
Ben Simmons.
With Simmons, we have two of the best defenders in the league who can legitimately guard 1-5. We can switch everything and defend the best players in the league. He and Bam are going to be unstoppable on the pick and roll with Curry spacing the floor -- you just won't be able to leave Steph alone. Bam can shoot the mid-range to give him some room.
I also want to say that Curry loves to run around -- play off the ball. He doesn't love just having it in his hands. You're not going to be able to stop a fast-break with Simmons running at the hoop but capable of sending to Curry. Bam is one of the best screeners in the NBA. Good luck guarding that Curry/Bam P&R with Simmons cutting to the hoop or Simmons/Bam P&R with Curry as outlet. Anyways, I took the bait and picked the most controversial guy out there.
