76ers Podcast: Ben Simmons Trade Rumors, Damian Lillard Discussion

Should the Sixers trade Ben Simmons in a package for Damian Lillard? Justin Grasso and Kevin McCormick discuss on the latest Bleav in 76ers Podcast.

The Philadelphia 76ers' playoff run might've ended, but the offseason speculation is just getting started. Following a rough showing in the second-round series against the Atlanta Hawks, Sixers All-Star Ben Simmons has been the talk of the NBA as of late as the trade rumors are already starting to fly.

Just as the Simmons trade rumors get fired up, another star out on the West Coast is also dealing with his own set of problems within his organization. Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard hasn't formally requested a trade just yet, but there's been tons of speculation that could happen any day now.

As the Sixers certainly have a need for a player like Lillard to match Joel Embiid up with, many are calling for the Sixers to send a trade package featuring Ben Simmons to the Blazers in exchange for Portland's longtime superstar point guard.

If Lillard does in fact become available, should the 76ers go all in for the All-Star? Justin Grasso and Kevin McCormick discuss the possibility on the latest episode of "Bleav in 76ers", hosted by the Bleav Podcast Network.
