Best I’ve seen from the Sixers perspective would be CJ McCollum straight up for Ben. Salaries are pretty close.
I think they can do better and younger. Not saying CJ wouldn't be good bc he is underrated but they still need a PG and have a hole there. Maybe Maxey is the PG of the future but I can see why they wanted Fox or Lillard. They need a guy that can play pick n roll with Embiid but CAN shoot lol. I think Sexton would be a good fit, probably would have to give up a little more than Sexton which I would have an issue with...I don't want Simmons on the Cavs though.
I think McCollum is a better fit than Sexton or Russell. In fact, I kind of fucking hate Russell’s game. Also, not that he can’t be that guy, but Embiid hasn’t really been a pick and roll player to date. He’s been a clear out on the block guy. The closest thing we see to him playing pick and roll is the dribble hand off stuff they used to run with JJ Redick
Curry and Mccollum, kinda seems redundant. Of course Mccollum can score from anywhere but neither of those guys is going to be handling the ball the for long periods of time, Harris can help but they need a true PG. Philly has never had a true PG with Embiid, he's never had a chance to show his entire skill set imo. Simmons doesn't count lol. Fox would be a great fit, that ain't happening though. Mccollum is about to be 30, yes that keeps Philly in their prime years but it doesn't move the needle much. I think that's why Philly is shooting for the moon, I don't blame them but Simmons is way overvalued.
Maybe he realizes he signed a contract and should be a man and honor it? Novel concept I know.
Apparently Beasley and Beverly
And McDaniel, and 4 firsts? LolApparently Beasley and Beverly
And a new washing machine
It’s all about the Embiid window and maximizing that. I’m in the camp that says Maxey can play 30-35 minutes at the 1 for this team. Curry would come off the bench which he is better suited for anyway. I think that’s the best on the table in my humble opinion.
That’s not bad. Need a little more to match salaries. I would rank this one right below McCollum for me.
1957 called and it wants its flat top and letterman sweater back.
Ha true. Morey doesn’t take my calls anymore. He took a harmless fat joke the wrong way.
Hield wouldn't do much for me. Any trade with Sacramento I would think has to include Haliburton and Davion Michell as a starting point. Obviously more to match salaries (Hield, Bagley, Tris, or whomever)...
They arent giving 3 guards…it is very certainthey want Hield bc of their 3 guards. He would be fine as a 3rd option in Philly. Throw in another young player but it seems like they are pretty high on Haliburton so I highly doubt they are getting Hailburton and Mitchell then more, would have to be Hield. Bagley isn’t much of a piece/asset at all.
Maybe Philly could include Shake Milton as a throw-in? I like Sacto as a trade partner here but I'm just not a Hield fan. He's got some age on him and has had a bit of an attitude in the past.
