So far ownership has been adamant about not trading either Joel or Simmons.

yeah.... but ownership likely still owes Brett Brown a lot of money while he wont be coaching here anymore, and committed 5 years and millions more to Doc Rivers. They are also well over the tax threshold. Theyre spending a TON of money on a non-contending team. Gotta imagine theyre going to be near the end of the line with their patience with these two stars as the core.

 Not a lot to like there. Morris, maybe?

I think Forbes would be my top guy. 

Then if they cant retain Burks, I could see them going for Augustine.

Morris would be next on my list but Id guess guards should be prioritized.

All those names are meh. 

Rondo getting into with Ben would be fun to see

 

yeah, there isn't a realistic move that will make them instant championship contenders...so somebody like rondo or chris paul who might be able to get ben and jojo to wake up might be the way to go.

I think Joel wakes up and plays to the level of teammates, but Ben just doesn't care. 

And Rozier is an inefficient ball handler who lost minutes to a 2nd rounder in Devonte' Graham

i agree with this.  i know it's the all-star game but jo seems to step it up during crunch time in the all-star game every year & is pretty much the go-to scorer...and can't be stopped. 

then he plays for the sixers in the playoffs & struggles against bums like theis.

im saying this now, im not going to surprised if ben gets shipped out because of his attitude and not willing to shoot. rivers wont stand for that.

i'd take scary terry...they need a pg who can create for himself & others. he's not my first choice but i'd rather have him than horford.  (graham did play great & had some ridiculous efficiency stat on shooting 3's that i can't remember.)     

that would be incredible

Yea and the suns would be incredibly stupid

I think this is more likely what we'd get

We could take Kira Lewis or Tyrell terry at 10

Good Read. Everyone should pray he finds his way to Philly

If the ownership basically burned him out with the way they made him do things their way why in the world would he come to this team and their ownership? That would be making a lateral move

Any chance we get Giannis in a trade.  Reports are leaking that he would like to play with Lebron.  Maybe we can put together a trade package to get Giannis here

no

This seems like an obvious trade for Ben Simmons and parts.
