nipples Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Morey really needs to make a couple moves to improve this roster. Neither Curry nor Green should be starting. It’s a tough ask to bring in two starting caliber players but at a minimum at least one of them needs to be replaced in the starting lineup, plus another bench scorer (a 4 would be preferable). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You kind of need to settle for Robinson, Ilyasova, trade for Bjelica, or a buyout signing of Ariza. None are particularly attracitve moves, but appear to be the best chance at trying to upgrade the Mike Scott problem. Bench scoring is going to have to come from the guard or wing spot either directly upgrading the bench, or upgrading a starter and moving Green or Curry to the bench.

Was listening to a interview with Keith Smith on 97.3 and he was talking about the Sixers have that trade exception which is $8.2 million. In that trade exception you can’t trade players from the Sixers to another team and you can only get one player with it. He made a really good argument that the Sixers should really try to get PJ Tucker with that. Now you still have the Morey and Rockets situation. But if you were able to get PJ Tucker with the Trade exception that allows you to also make a secondary move like getting someone Wayne Ellington in a deal and keeping Danny Green and Seth Curry and moving them to the bench. So then you’ve improved your bench and your starting lineup 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a lot of 0 point games in 20-30 minutes. Would be like another Danny Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like there’s gonna be minimal teams willing to trade on March 25 especially eastern conference with the six through eight seed stop being up for grabs. I think bjelica makes sense however he’s also not great this year either. It’s really not a great market. The rights to Ricky Sanchez gave a bunch and none are great. https://www.rightstorickysanchez.com/normal-column/121020 I think an interesting team to look out for a trade is the Orlando Magic. Evan Fournier is a free agent at the end of the year. I am guessing they would like to capitalize on his value before he just leaves and there are in no position to win anything right now. I’m guessing you probably could also get Terrence Ross and that deal cause they were probably want to get out of that contract, clear a bunch of space at the end of the year and it’s doable for the Sixers. I don’t think it’s completely impossible if you give up a first round pick and Maxey a deal to get those two guys coming back and that improves your team. The trade i made Orlando clears 23 mil in cap space with the contracts at the end of the year, you take ross off their books for the next two years (has value might have to include more cause of how good he is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Gordon can be had too. I posted a hypothetical ben trade months ago getting Gordon and Fournier. Don't love Gordon, but both fill needs. Keeping been and getting any 2 of those 3 is a home run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with Orlando you can sweeten a deal by giving them a lot of expiring contracts to where they’re gonna get a ton of cap space next year which plays into their favor of giving up those two guys. I like Aaron Gordon I’ve watched him since he was in college and in high school since he went to Arizona. However he’s not good enough of a shooter to put around the guys you have He’s improved since Arizona but he’s still not good enough to be a stretch 4. I know he’s shooting a career high 37% but i think expecting him to keep that up isn’t realistic. ideally i think for the sixers you’d rather have ross and Fournier. if you do this deal Orlando can potentially have nearly 30 mil of cap space cleared up at the end of the season plus they get someone like Maxey and a first and more. The cap space is something Orlando would probably love to acquire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToastJenkins Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 i think i would rather just ride with this roster and its expiring deals than trade Maxey. I'm thinking long term and i'm not convinced they can win a title this year. outside of Beal, i just dont see a deal I would sell out for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think getting a guard like ish, or rubio would help. Something that would help us in the half court in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
