Isnt there anyone else?I can probably live with McCain in that deal instead of VJ.The only reason McCain kinda fell off is because of his injuries and now he has forgotten how to shoot. 6ers will ruin him by relegating him to G league and never giving him NBA minutes. May as well trade him instead of wasting his talent.But Giannis?

But Giannis and Harris should be good adds there.I suppose if it can be done for McCain, we arent losing much in that deal.I still dont love the Giannis fit here....I really dont feel we need to add another super star to this roster. And sure not one who is going to clog up spacing quite a bit, and also be so ball dominant.

But I would actually use McCain in a trade that gets you over the top. Cause what I think is gonna happen is if you sign Grimes to an extension, I just don’t see how you’re gonna play him the minutes he needs to develop. Use what his value is before it drops even more. imo doesn’t need to be giannis but something that gives you another boost

I'd rather develop our young guys than get another often injured superstar whose best days are behind him.
January 26Jan 26 I had no idea the Sixers had a game this afternoon. Apparently, they didn't either...
January 27Jan 27 I have no doubt the 6ers were exhausted from clearing snow around their mansions. Kinda unfair to make them play today.
January 29Jan 29 We aren’t extending Grimes. I wouldn’t be shocked if he was moved at the deadline. It may be beneficial for him because if McCain starts to get back to form, he isn’t get much playing time here to showcase himself for his next contract. Hello no to Giannis. This team only needs a piece or two. Unless you move Joel (not happening), Giannis doesn’t fit here. He needs the ball in hands all the time. That’s not possible with Maxey, Joel, PG, and VJ. Even if PG goes, still not gonna fit here.
January 29Jan 29 You know what's going to happen...... They'll trade VJ, he'll become the 2nd coming of Dwayne Wade and Giannis will tear his Achilles and never be the same. (with all of the calf issues he's having, you know it's gonna happen soon)

January 30Jan 30 Grimes is out again? Hmmmm, it's starting to look more and more like he is on the trade block. If McCain plays well tonight, its a wrap. So Drummond, EG, and Grimes available probably. They signed Bassey so I wonder if Bona has any trade value? Need to keep him or Drummond to spell Embiid.

Thats a yes for me.I prefer this Ingram trade to any possible trade for Giannis.

January 30Jan 30 Back up point guard is a definite position of need. McCain is just getting back on his feet and isn't a great ball handler yet, VJ can bring the ball up at times but he isn't an actual point guard, Grimes looks lost or will get traded. Someone to spell Maxey so he doesn't have to play every game and all the minutes would be nice. Someone mentioned Jose Alvarado. Wouldn't mind that at all and may not cost much.

But now there is the report that Giannis would like to play with Maxey. So maybe Philly finally has some gravity.
