Sixers Offseason Thread Part 2

Mikel Bridges...If we're going to suggest Ingram, then why not suggest Mikel Bridges? I think it's highly likely Brooklyn trades him at some point.

Mikel Bridges...If we're going to suggest Ingram, then why not suggest Mikel Bridges? I think it's highly likely Brooklyn trades him at some point.

Ingram has already been linked to us, mikal isn’t even available for the third pick in the draft according to reports and Brooklyn doesn’t own their own future picks so I doubt Mikals moving to anyone but Houston for their own picks back

[Sportfan73]

All the names analyzed and discussed, I still think it'll come down to either PG, Jimmy, or Ingram. After those 3 I think the drop off in likelihood moves to a whole other tier.

These are the guys that basically every insider has said we want and have linked to us. I agree with this completely

[zaz102]

I'd rather trade for Dejounte Murray than Ingram.

I agree. When it comes to attainable assets and based on the rumors of how distressed his value has become (maybe 1 1st and a swap), I'm surprised he hasn't been rumored at all (or at least from what I've read).

I would prefer PG, but he would be in the next tier for me taking contract and trade cost into consideration.

Sasha Vezenkov would be worth considering if the price was low, off ball scorer with big-time Euro resume, reasonable contract

[Sixersftw]

here's my outside-the-box FA target: Mario Hezonja

I saw a report where he was unhappy at Real Madrid, see if if wants to give the NBA another shot in a role like Fontecchio played with Utah & Detroit

He’s one of those guys that I’m always down to let him hurt me. Never ending faith in his potential, lol.

He just needs the right opportunity and he'll be a star. You will never be able to convince me otherwise. It is the illogical hill I will die on.

I'd be willing to give a future 2nd to take the contract, then talk to him about staying in the league and a rotation spot.

you definitely have that conversation before the trade

Sure, if you're allowed to.

Cool, what are your thoughts on sterilization of the planet?

I was intrigued enough with the resume to check out some highlights. He just looks too unathletic for the NBA. Skilled, but I just don't think he can hang enough defensively for a guy that's a role player offensively. I'd look elsewhere even if the price was just the cap space.

I think people are underestimating how bad of an owner Jerry Reinsdorf is. No way the Bulls are going to trade LaVine + assets to get much worse. Would it benefit the Bulls long term? Probably. But Reinsdorf is more than happy to see his team stay as the 6-9 seed and collect revenue, LaVine helps that.

The Bulls' team salary currently stands at $131 million. If they can trade LaVine for cap space, their team salary would drop to around $90 million. This reduction would give them enough room to replace LaVine with players like Malik Monk or Klay Thompson. Additionally, LaVine no longer fits well with the Bulls, as their guard positions are already filled with Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, Alex Caruso, and possibly even DeMar DeRozan.

They could also use the cap space to sign a player like Isaiah Hartenstein or Jalen Smith, who would fill their much-needed power forward position.

Furthermore, moving down from the 11th to the 16th draft pick doesn't involve sacrificing much talent.

Because Mikal Bridges is the most expensive 3&D guy in the history of the league.

He can’t create his own shots and he’s just a neutral defensive player but he’s being valued like a 6’7” version of Kevin Durant.

I believe Nets is looking for a top pick or Jalen Green for Mikal Bridges.

I was visiting the Bulls site, in their Zach trade thread they fully expect to “get” in a Lavine trade, not give up. The 76ers example was this years first + another + a second. Granted, it’s a fan board, we are all homers for our teams… but I think Zach doesn’t get moved at all if they are wanting value for him.

So seeing these lack-luster options is making me somewhat forget how horrible a person miles bridges is… lol I may totally have forgotten by free agenxy

[Jhawk03]

My number one choice is LeBron, it would be like when the NY Jets traded for Aaron Rodgers. Then we'd have our quarterback!

Ferry, is that you?

Good one

But seriously, I said before that my targets are Bridges and Ball, give Charlotte whatever it takes... (entice a sign and trade for Bridges to offset the capital for Lamelo?)

Sign Lowry for nothing, bring in DeRozan. Build out the rest of the roster with the remaining cap and still keep draft picks for future team building.

We’re not getting LeBron, PG is using us for leverage, Ingram is worse than DeRozan and will require assets to acquire.

PG is definitely using us for leverage, but what happens if the Clippers don't give in? They are in a rough negotiating spot. Does giving PG more than Kawhi cause drama? What does giving in to his demands do to their negotiations with Harden?

Anyway, if they strike out elsewhere (would need to be like a 12 pitch at bat to stick with the metaphor), I'm fine with DeRozan on a short term deal at around $30M.

Fit with Embiid is rough, but he'd at least give us a guy that carry offense in lineups when Embiid is off the floor.
