If Utah and Philly are looking at LaVine please tell me we;re trying to route assetts so the Jazz get Lavine and we get Lauri?

According to Negrodamus, you're all set.

Morey needs 16 to take Bronny. :lol:


The feels simultaneously such a Morey AND Klutch move. Smokescreen constantly, say the LeBron/Bronny thing isn’t going to be a thing; then Morey makes it a thing to bring in LeBron.

I don't see us getting LeBron at all. The just got JJ. The only reason they would get Redick is so LeBron stays.

If we get the tweet (likely from Shams first) next week when the Sixers are on the clock that LeBron James Jr. is on the Sixers radar…

The Lakers dysfunction knows no bounds.

I agree LeBron is almost certainly staying in LA, though.

Lebron theory?


I've been on that island for a little while waiting to be saved and at the same time praying for a hurricane.


Would be markedly better than trading for Butler or maxing George.

LeGM would also exercise his connects to build us a bench better than we've had in the Embiid era.

Still doubt, but let's see what happens. Final stretch until the draft and then FA.

That team is dead in the water with or without LeBron. He got his buddy a foot in the door (and a ton of money) with one of the most prestigious coaching jobs in US sports.

LeBron has like two seasons left. Would be a waste of time to be a play-in team for those final two years.

I've mentioned getting John Collins and Jordan Clarkson in the past. 3 way trade could make sense.

My theory on the Shams report.

If you notice, it's very vague. It doesn't say why the Sixers have decided to pivot. It just says their interest has waned.

If the Sixers wanted to put out damage control because they don't feel they are getting PG, they'd leak it as "The Sixers don't feel they can lure Paul George away from LA, so they've decided to move in a different direction." The way Shams reported it though, it makes it sound like the Sixers took the initiative here to back away, rather than PG backing away from them. That feels like a calculated Morey leak to me, it just does.

The fact that it just says "their interest has waned" that screams to me Morey trying to get the word out to Paul George's camp like "We're moving on if we don't get a sense by draft night that we can sign you, because if not, and we have a Butler trade on the table or an Ingram trade on the table, we're pulling the trigger." And hope that they get an indicator in return that tells them whether they have a legit shot or not.

The LaVine rumor sounds like BS posturing to me. I think our options (in no order) are George, Butler, Miles Bridges Ingram, Anunoby, or possibly DeRozan IF Chicago is to going with a youth movement. I'm guessing that we'll try to land two guys. One via trade and the other through free agency. I don't think LaVine is on our list. I think Paul George and LeBron are rumors and nothing more.
