The Sixers are celebrating, but what about fans of the Knicks, Nets and Lakers?
Another NBA trade deadline is behind us. Let’s run through some winners and losers!
Winner: Daryl Morey
All season long, I’ve said Morey was trying too hard to wait out the Simmons situation for a star. All season long, I said he needs to face reality and move Simmons for multiple parts, especially while Joel Embiid was playing at an MVP level. I was wrong! Morey banked on a superstar shaking free, and lo and behold, he moved somebody who hasn’t played since a playoff meltdown for a former MVP.
