‘Play better’: Philly is done with SimmonsĮven though Simmons was suspended for the season opening game against the New Orleans Saints - Philadelphia won 117-97 - the 25-year-old Aussie was taunted mercilessly by the New Orleans crowd. “Joel Embiid is in his prime, he’s an MVP candidate, Daryl Morey’s got to sick his pride up and say, ‘You know what?
