I will be very surprised if the Sixers land IHart. I am not sure if everybody realized that but the Sixers are letting everybody go except Embiid and Maxey to open cap space. They will have 65M in cap space (plus 7M Room MLE) to build a whole new team. Why would they invest 20M on a backup Center that can have issues playing with Embiid when you need a lot of good rotation guys?
Yeah I don't see the Sixers being serious about Hartenstein. They are swinging for bigger fences to pair with and attempt to keep Embiid from wanting out. If the Clips aren't willing to go supermax on PG13 (and there is a possibility they won't) then without question he'd be their no.1 target and they'll give him whatever he wants. It's more likely the Sixers look at OG than IHart.
They ended up in the 7th seed b/c of the gaping hole at C. Plus he's a Morey discovery. I think they def think about it.
OK. But now, they have a lot of holes. There are more holes than fabric.
They need 3 wings to complete the starting team and some rotation players.
Playing IHart as PF next to Embiid can be awkward. It's risky. He can end up backing Embiid for 15 minutes a night as Paul Reed did last season.
Also, they would have to let Paul Reed walk for nothing. (They can stil pick Reed 7M TO or bring him back with the Room MLE).
