This will be the first time that the Brooklyn Nets will be facing the Philadelphia 76ers this season. Ben Simmons was a part of the trade that brought him to Brooklyn and sent James Harden to the 76ers.

How things went down between Simmons and the 76ers

Simmons had an awfully tough time getting into the groove of the game with his new team but has picked up the pace since then. The Australian point guard did not leave the 76ers organization on good terms.

He clearly burned some bridges on his way out. Simmons was highly criticized by fans, analysts, and even his teammates and coach over a play in the playoffs. And from there, one thing led to another to the point that Simmons had to be traded away.
