Why would they want him? He sucks

A bit sensationalized, he was basically saying he's not going to beg Ben Simmons to play for them, but they would be excited to have him if he decided to play and there is room for him

Do the Boomers even want him at this point?

What a useless human being Ben Simon's is. Such a bad attitude, worthless set of skill both as a basketball player and a human being. Every choice he makes is bad and selfish. I wouldn't let him come and play with me in my neighborhood, let alone the national team
