I'm thinking we can probably get a much better package elsewhere.

Never overpay one dimensional players. Robinson is a cautionary tale. Don't get stuck with a mediocre or bad contract.

Trade them Fred NOW so they will make the play-in and not be in the running for Scoot/Wemby.
If Fred really wants the MOST money he'd be cool with signing in Orlando with no state taxes.
Suggs, Ross and Caleb Houstan for FVV and Juancho Hernangomez.

He's played 20+ mins this season 16 times and has been able to shoot 32% from 3 in those games. He's 21 and maybe worth sticking it out. I suspect they scouted him extensively when considering the #4, which was Barnes.

It might be worth giving Siakam/FVV/OG to Orlando and the Bulls for basically nothing. They represent our main competition for the #5 spot.

Would anyone take a chance at Jonathan Isaac? He just came back from missing almost 2 years due to various injury. Still only 25...but looks like Orlando is moving forward with Wagner, Banchero, Carter and Bol. If Isaac is finally healthy...is he worth a look?

We already have Simmons at home (in Barnes). If we build around Barnes, we need shooters and a rim protector; basically the 2019 76ers that lost to us on the last shot. IMO they were a really good team.

What about Boucher and Flynn for Josh Hart and Greg Brown (expiring)?
