Orlando in: Joel Embid, Josh Richardson, Mike Scott and Zaire Smith.

76ers in: Jrue Holiday, Aaron Gordon, Mo Bamba, Orlando’s 2020 first unprotected.

Pelicans in: Nikola Vucevic.

Magic do this to get a true superstar in Embid and build around him moving forward.

76ers do this to allow Ben Simmons to be the MAN! Plus they get 2 very good defenders back in Jrue and Gordon. They allow Bamba to work on his body and learn from a great vet like horford.

Pelicans do this to get a stretch big next to Zion so he can have a clear path to the hoop.

Very out the box, I like it.

I don't like this for Orlando. Embiid is a bad fit next to Fultz and Isac. Would rather move AG (and maybe Bamba) for someone else.

LOL. So the Magic get a top 10 NBA superstar for some scraps? Then to add insult to injury, the pick they send is protected. This is comical.

Yeah.. I dont think the Pelicans will do it. They can get better value for jrue. Maybe a first round pick is needed.
Too many pieces here. Phyladelphia will rather trade Simmons than Embiid. Not happening for philadelphia either.
I think a most likely trade will be something sorrounding Richardson and Zaire for Fournier and a Agustine. Why? because Phila needs to clear space next year and this will give them two good expiring contracts that will also help them go for a run this year.
I dont see NOLA wanting Vooch Nor Magic going after Jrue if the above trade happens.

The Sixers are going to be over the tax next year regardless. Throwing a bargain contract like Richardson overboard doesn’t change that.

So are people just trolling Sixers fans at this point? Someone really responded that they don't like because he doesn't fit with Fultz...? Lol.

Orlando passes... Embiid will just stunt the development of Khem Birch.

Why in the world Orlando does that? Mo Bamba Project to be at least as good as Embiid. This is a no no

Seriously lol. A markedly better version of Vucevic who can actually play defense would hurt a stretch 4 and a guard that needs more spacing.

Horford
Gordon
Harris
Holliday
Simmons

Philly goes from an elite defensive team that can't shoot, to an elite defensive team that can't shoot even more
