As the Philadelphia 76ers season continues, the big elephant, Ben Simmons’ fate, remains in the room. The Sixers have always stated they want him out on the floor, but it is clear Simmons wants out. The organization will have to accept that.

Simmons returned to the team on Oct. 11 after ending his holdout, but he has not exactly been a real participant. He has been there only as a body; his mind has not been with the team.

He has since gone to see a mental health professional, but that has not worked out well either. The Sixers have grown frustrated with being kept out of the loop, and Simmons’ camp isn’t happy with the current fines.

A new trade suggestion — it’s a little wild — from Bleacher Report has the Sixers moving Simmons to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Jrue Holiday. The move would have a positive impact on Philadelphia as Holiday would be a great fit next to Joel Embiid, but it is a curious suggestion.

B/R on the deal:

Pairing Simmons and Antetokounmpo gives Milwaukee perhaps the two most versatile defenders in the league. Both stand at 6’11” and can guard all five positions on the floor.

Holiday would be a breath of fresh air if he returned to Philly, as he’s ready to win now and can do anything Doc Rivers asks of him. He’s already proved capable of thriving next to All-Star big men (Anthony Davis, Antetokounmpo) and would help bring out the best in Joel Embiid.

Holiday, an All-Star with the Sixers in 2013, is averaging 14.3 points and 5.8 assists while shooting 32.6% from deep to begin the season. He has been dealing with injuries, which explains the slow start. Swapping Simmons for Holiday could be an interesting move, but it’s hard to think the Bucks would pull off a move like this.
