Podcast: Does Ben Simmons make any sense for the Lakers?

On this week’s episode of “The Anthony Irwin Show,” Adam Mares of DNVR stops by to, well, catch up, seeing as we hadn’t podcasted in weeks. It truly is the biggest reunion in recent history. Looking at you, “Friends” cast.

To start the show, we discussed Ben Simmons’ brutal playoff series, and where his trade market might currently sit. Given that both Doc Rivers and Joel Embiid threw him in front of the bus of all buses, it’s hard to see Simmons returning to that locker room, but this is quite possibly the worst imaginable time to try to trade Simmons given how little any team might be willing to give up for him.
