I agree and the leap he's made has been very impressive but the one thing to keep in my mind is Ingram has yet to show that he can play good and also contribute to winning basketball

Im very close to taking Ingram but right now Id still have to say Simmons until I see Ingram do it in some bigger moments

I don't think the pelicans are any better with Simmons than ingram right now. The sixers are better with ingram instead of Simmons right now. It would instantly make Embiid more dangerous.
 
man, idgaf that the pelicans beat the blazers and now people are saying well the blazers arent good

Eff that...the pelicans looked GREAT defensively last night and off the top of my head, i think they've held 2 of their last 3 opponents under 100 pts...they got key stops and forced turnovers

anything to gain some traction in the direction of something positive, im all for

i hope this upcoming game against golden state is the last one of the season...got damn...3x before christmas??
 
The one thing I can say about Simmons is that I want to see how he plays on a team built around him and suited to his strengths, without Embiid.

Start simmons as the point center/forward, have him grab rebounds and lead the breaks and put him in the post to either make a play or put up a 4 footer.

Philly got Simmons as a perimeter player, not their fault, they got embiid who is better and they probably thought by now Simmons would have improved offensively but Simmons is more suited for a jokic type role

fwiw

everything about Simmons since he was in high school centered around him being on the perimeter

He rarely went in the post at LSU and only got long rebounds. He not battling like that in the paint. I dont think he want that kinda contact tbh

Jrue stay bodying him up

One if the biggest narratives this season has been how bad the blazers are. It isn't anyone's fault you have tunnel vision g.

Pelicans beating another bad team isn't anything to talk about.
