Doug Collins held Turner back.

Ingles is a free agent after this year so his new favorite Aussie teammate (Thybulle) would need to ensure he re-signs here on a short deal.

I would love to see Jordan Clarkson here, but I will explode with anger if that is all we get in return for Ben Simmons. On top of that, is Ben Simmons really a good fit with D Mitchell? I don't think so. Mitchell is the lead guy on that team. He has the ball in his hands on every possession, he's their point guard based on him being the alpha of that team. In my opinion, Ben Simmons would be an atrocious fit with Mitchell and would ultimately stifle the impact of Rudy Gobert as well. Acquiring Clarkson would be huge for us, but it would have to be some sort of three way deal. I doubt that Utah being built the way they are, have any interest in Ben Simmons. Now if you take Mitchell off that team, then Simmons makes sense for them, but he's a bad fit with that cast. Even worse than he is here.


Utah has a ton of shooting but no perimeter defence

People forget that they have been dumped out of the playoffs in consecutive seasons due to their perimeter being shredded

Simmons for Conley and Clarkson/Ingles makes sense for both teams

Sabonis , Brogdon and lavert for Simmons, Tobias and Shake.


Philly upgrades it's playmaking and wing play. Sabonis all-star paired with Embiid :o

Indiana gets a star to build around and compliments

Turner/.---
Tobias/---
Warren/ ----
Lamb/ Shake

I don’t believe Sixers would trade both Simmons and Harris.
