Can you believe it!? Philadelphia 76ers head coach Brett Brown may have finally made the change fans have been screaming for. Moving Ben Simmons off the ball; being the power forward. This is likely not a permanent change however, it is a pretty big change that could be devastating for other teams.

Let’s face it. Ben Simmons is far too talented of a player to be limited as a “point guard”. The guy can make a case for every position on the court. If you move him off the ball though, somebody on the Sixers has to play point guard.

“He’s been amazing. He’s been the starting point guard. I think he has a huge opportunity to help us accomplish what we believe we can. He’s been doing an amazing job, just running the team” -Joel Embiid on Shake Milton at point guard

Today was a big news day for the Sixers. Lots of questions were answered today. The result of moving Ben Simmons to power forward seems like Shake Milton would be the point guard in those instances. On top of that, it would also seem as if Al Horford is likely to come off the bench and play backup 5.

This season was shaping to be a potential disaster just before the National pandemic period. Since the start of the NBA resume, there’s been nothing but optimism on The Philadelphia 76ers now. Check out my full video reaction to this new potential Sixers starting lineup.
