A 2020 lineup that has Young/Reddish/Collins/Embiid would definitely intrigue Giannis for 2021

I don't know if its a fair offer, but if you stack the other offers from the other teams, I think a Hawks' package would be at the top of the list.
You'd still have to throw in Huerter OR Hunter OR Cam...and if you take one of those deals you're out for FA forever basically, so you marry your core of Trae, Embid, Reddish, Harris
Commit to the process

I don't know for sure but I have no reason to think Giannis would want to play with Embiid

Re: Joel Embiid
Both trae and Giannis possess the type of gravity that will draw defenders. Both Trae and Giannis can facilitate and Iso u to death. As long as we make sure we keep decent shooters, that trio would be the scariest combination in the NBA. Offensive spacing and transition would be dope.

Atlanta Goes All-In for Embiid
Atlanta Hawks receive: Joel Embiid
Philadelphia 76ers receive: Clint Capela, Kevin Huerter, De'Andre Hunter, 2020 No. 6 pick and 2022 first-round pick (top-three protected)
To be clear, this runs completely counter to the direction Sixers general manager Elton Brand said he wants to go, but he could soon discover this roster is broken beyond repair. It's easy to say the Sixers should keep Simmons and Embiid together and just fix the supporting cast around them. It's far more difficult to bring those improvements to light. Tobias Harris and Al Horford are borderline untradeable on their colossal contracts. Josh Richardson might have modest trade value, but he's not landing a difference-maker.
The Sixers might need to sacrifice one star to save themselves. That's the only way they're replenishing the cupboards, which this deal definitely does. Capela is the athletic rim-runner Simmons needs at his side, as the two could do damage in transition and pick-and-rolls. Huerter steps into the spot-up sniper role JJ Redick used to fill. Hunter adds another three-and-D option. The picks either lead to high-upside prospects or facilitate another trade.
The Hawks, meanwhile, find perhaps the best accelerator on the market. Embiid is this era's Hakeem Olajuwon, a dream-shaking 7-footer with elite paint protection and enough of an outside shot to keep defenses honest. Put Embiid with Young, and Atlanta's offense has a skyscraper's ceiling. Put John Collins alongside them, and that ceiling jumps a few more stories.
Simmons gets his own roster of open-court athletes, and Embiid finds an offensive co-star who has the gravitational pull to keep defenders away. The Sixers and Hawks can both come out ahead.
This is just as terrible for the 76ers as all those other Bleacher Report trades are for the Hawks
