Ben Simmons and Embiid haven't exactly clicked. What makes us think him and Towns will figure it out?

He's a great, not good defensive player. We need defense too.

Great. Is ben simmons available? Because if he is, Il target him over booker. Simmons would fit in as the playmaking 4 next to Kat and bring defense, rebounding, playmaking and speed to the team. With our top 3 guys now being high volume 3pt shooters. Simmons fits right in. 2020 1st, 2023 1st and phillys 2022 2nd back to them. Add okogie or culver.

Russell isn't going anywhere, but that goes double if Simmons was a trade target.

Calling it right now. Ben Simmons will be on the wolves by the start of next year.

Ben Simmons and Al Horford

For

#1, #16, James Johnson, Culver, Beasley (S&T)

All rumors are 76ers might blow it up. We take on Horford because it is a terrible deal and helps with financial flexibility.

76ers build around Embiid, #1 pick, #16 pick, allows cap flexibility in a year with Johnson coming off the books. Then have more assets to trade Harris if they want more flexibility

Towns is the best shooting big man in the history of the game and Embiid needs the ball in the low post to dominate. Huge difference in play styles.

I don't think, wait I'm positive, Simmons and Russell can't play together.

Reposting this here for fun.

Suns:
- SG D. Booker = $29,467,800

Wolves:
- SG M. Beasley (S/T) = $12,000,000
- PF J. Johnson (PO) = $16,047,100
- SG J. Culver = $6,104,280
- 2020 first-round pick
- 2024 first-round pick

Suns can only take back $34.2M in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

He's a great, not good defensive player. We need defense too.

The league is encouraging more scoring by the way it is officiated ,adding one good defensive player while sacrificing all of it's shooting isn't gonna stop the other teams from putting up a lot of points. Teams win by having bigtime scorers on the court these days.
