    all the rumbling is 76ers plan to trade off okafor or nerlens noel to get rid of a forward then grab ben simmons

    -300 is a pretty solid price only other guys competing in the top 3 are ingram,bender and buddy hield
    best fit imo for the 76ers would be ingram to get a scoring guard but everybodys saying they want simmons even though he wants to go to the lakers which causes a little doubt .... what books this on i still like the -300 price id say its 75%+ chance he goes 1st so that price tag is worth it

    Ben Simmons will be NBA bust.

    -300 is far from a lock

    Towns was a lock at -200 last year. Not sure what they know that is leading them to make Simmons -300 especially when Ingram fits the roster better, assuming they don't move Nerlens / Jahlil.

    From what I can tell hes the first no1 overall that has so much negativity surrounding his NBA prospects...76ers dont need him imo SARIC is 10 times better...Kinda sucks when these teams are forced to take the best prospects look at where kobe, kawhi ended up just to name some standouts...I think this year holds some hidden gems!

    nobodys saying will simmons be the best player in the draft, 76ers suck and take big man/ forwards every year and all the buzz around the 76ers camp is that theyre fielding offers for noel or okafor so for -300 id take that all day i say its highly likely he goes 1 just because he has the athletiscm and passing ability , no jumper but that can come , plenty of the best players in the game came in without a jumper ( kawhi leonard , jimmy butler ) he could be a poor mans lebron i think the 76ers take the big name to get some buzz going around the franchise to just my 2 cents

    Up in the air. If they can't move Okafor or Noel then they would be dumb not to take Ingram.

    Odds are the line will drop drastically if they do which they also might not do until draft day.

    Okafor is a true center, just like Embiid. Noel is also more of a center than PF despite playing there at times for Philly. in theory, none of them would be taking mins from either Simmons or Ingram if they all remained on the team.

    anyway, Philly can move Okafor and/or Noel in a heartbeat, that's not a problem. would they lose on those trades? of course. not only are they Philly, but they haven't the first clue as how to develop players. there's many teams who would happily buy low on those guys and not even bother to watch any tape of their NBA careers to date.

    Just got back from Vefas. No prop on this at CG, MGM, or Stations books. Westgate does do some props like this at times. Max will be a dime most likely.

    Saw -280 at betonline. Thought it looked like a good bet. Ingram probably the better fit in Philly since they are desperate for shooters. As others mentioned, Okafor or Noel will be on the move this offseason; most likely Okafor. Philly has been tanking for the 1st pick for four years now. They finally got it. They will take the guy with the bigger upside - Simmons.

    It's a very good possibility that he goes #1.

    Sixers are locked in on Simmons. Only way they don't take him is another team offering a kings ransom for the #1 pick, only to take Simmons...

    Can't see them trading the pick. Philly fans are growing very impatient with the rebuilding process. They've been counting on getting the 1st pick for a few years now. They finally get it. If they trade it for future "assets" they will catch even more flack than they already have.

    Lakers rebuilding looking good if they get Ingram.

    Team will be absolutely stacked with young talent.
