Before I explain the trade I know some people believe Simmons has the trade value of Damian Lillard and others think he has the value of Derrick White. I think this trade is a mixture of both.

Sixers/ The sixers get Andrew Wiggins who has molded himself into a great enforcer and defender. They also get Jordan Poole who is an excellent 3 point shooter and scorer (which is Ben Simmons main weakness) and is developing fast for only a 22 yr old. He could become the sixers second scoring option like a Jordan Clarkson type. They also get Derrick White who can replace some of Simmons Defending and playmaking and is an underated shot blocker and off ball pest. Because Simmons decreased his trade value so much this is probably the best he's going to get. Ovr grade B+

Warriors/ The warriors obviously do this to contend. Getting Ben Simmons is the best option available at the moment. Simmons is a DPOY type player and one of the best Playmakers in the league. His playstyle benefits from this system so much because he can just drive and kick out to some of the best shooters of all time and you're adding a literal stretch big and a veteran 3 and D player and Simmons is sure to have a comeback season. He's also sure to bre more agressive because he has more spacing available and being forced to have more of a scoring roll clearly pissed him off and shook his confidence. With curry and Klay having more of that role Simmons can just be Simmons. He reminds me of a bigger Prime Draymond green. The last time Draymond green was an all-star- type of player the warriors went 73-9 so this is extremely scary for the league. They also get Christian wood who is an excellent 3 point shooter for his position as he shot 38% and athletic enough to still be a good finisher. His only weakness is defense and Simmons fills that hole completely. Just like his shooting fills Simmons hole at the forwards spot. They also add Eric Gordon who is am veteran presence and 3 point shooter who is also an elite defender. Which the warriors will always be excited about. They also just dropped Avery Bradley so this makes perfect sense for why they would want him. Ovr grade A Starting rotation PG Steph curry SG Klay Thompson SF Ben Simmons PF Christian wood C Kevin Looney Bench PG Damion Lee SG Eric Gordon SF Andre Iguodala/Jonathan Kuminga PF Otto Porter C Nemanja Bjelica

Rockets/ The Rockets are still trying to rebuild so trading away Christian wood and Eric Gordon for assets isn't a bad idea. They also get rid of their huge contracts which could free up money to resign their rookies Ina few years. They have to get rid of two picks that aren't even theirs and get to keep tanking because of it. And with that they get former Second ovr pick James Wiseman the only position they really need. I also love that Draymond gets to stay with Wiseman since Draymond seems to be his mentor. If the Rockets want the best out of Wiseman getting Draymond is a solid pickup. Especially since they're defense is poor too and he helps with that. Ovr grade B+ Starting rotation PG John wall SG Jalen Green SF JaeSean Tate PF Kenyon Martin Jr C James Wiseman

Spurs/ The Spurs get a little bit back in return for an aging Guard that doesn't really help their rebuilding efforts and is kind of holding back their other guys potential at thay position like Lonnie walker, Joshua Primo. If he's not developing anything he might as well just be replaced for someone that could. They also gain back a good SG at the same position that is way younger and some other guys that could be helpful in the future they give up a lottery protected pick in two years that really shouldn't matter because of protection Ovr grade B PG Dejounte Murray SG Tyrese Maxey/ Lonnie Walker SF Devin Vasell PF Keldon Johnson C Jakob Poetl Bench PG Tre Jones/ Jaden Springer SG Lonnie Walker/ Tyrese Maxey SF Doug McDermott PF Thad Young/ Paul Reed C Drew Eubanks
