I'm really gonna be interested to see what the Simmons market ends up being, if his contract were a rookie deal I'd imagine there's be tons of teams willing to take a flier on a talented guy. But his contract is as bad as it gets right now so can't see too many teams being in, or perhaps more to the point I can't see teams willing to trade anything other than likewise bad contracts.

That's crazy. Simmons is very talented. Many teams, especially ones that have a hard time attracting top free agents will be looking to acquire Simmons.
