Tom - Simmons is really freaking good, and there certainly shouldn't be an imperative to ship him out of town. But "there is no problem" takes it a little too far in the other direction: are you confident that he can be the lead perimeter creator on a successful Embiid-centric playoff offense? Even though the pieces seem to fit much better around them now, I'm still a bit skeptical - so I would say there's SOME problem, at least until proven otherwise.
Hank Aaron is one of the all-time greats, both as a ballplayer, and as a man.
He certainly deserved a far-better written tribute than the Worldwide Leader in Sports™ managed to shat out.
