Moreover, don?t tell me Simmons can?t grow as a player/teammate. Look at what Wiggins has done in the right situation. I haven?t given up on Simmons and think Dallas would be an absolute perfect fit!
Could you explain why Simmons would be an "absolute perfect fit?" Because the way I see it, Luka is almost the worst player in the league to put Simmons next to, because it requires Simmons to play off the ball. Playing next to Luka would take away from Simmons' greatest strength- ball-handling/facilitating, and put a blinding spotlight on his horrific flaw- the fact that he can't shoot.
