[Highkin] Anfernee Simons is a name to watch on the trade market

I’ve been watching and refreshing my browser in anticipation for a while now.
> *“On draft night, Cronin said the Blazers are ‘committed’ to building around Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe, and didn’t mention Simons’ name. Simons also appears open to a move—at his end-of-season exit interview in April, he said he wants ‘the opportunity to win,’ which is very plainly not where the Blazers are right now or will be in the next few years.”*
Salary dump is the only option. Fans can cry about it but he’s no better than Poole who won a 🏆 and was still seen as a negative asset
F5 season
Just like Herro he’s not going to have many suitors. Being one of the worst few defensive players in the league + not being a real point guard hurts his value a ton
I could have told you that
Simons is 100% quietly asking out. I also do not blame him one bit, I’d want off this team too if I were him.
Cronin has proven to be a patient negotiator with trades. Everyone thought we’d trade Brogdon quickly and we waited it out for the right deal, obviously with Dame he was very patient. I think deals came pouring in quickly on Holiday and that’s why he moved quickly on that trade. I think he will continue to be patient with Ant and Grant. We aren’t a tax team and are in no hurry so wait until the deadline of nothing interesting comes out way.
