If we do take and keep Ball fortunately for me there is no bridge I know of anywhere close. However there is the Grand Canyon about 75 miles away.

I'm team Wiseman, and I've soured on Edwards and Ball to the point that I don't even want to trade down unless it's a double trade down to 6 or 7, for at least one if not 2 lightly protected 1st.

1. Wiseman
17. Theo Maledon
33. Zeke Nnaji, Reggie Perry, McDaniels. Or a shooter. Or trade for likely top 40 2021/2022 2nd.

That's actually a little cheaper than I thought for dumping Horford's contract.
Damn OKC is still going to be competetive this year.

Would you say that it would take us to the top of the mountain?

Have no idea what Horford contact looks like but he and Towns are close and would love to see him as our 3rd big.

If Elizabeth is waiting for us at the peak, we sure as heck will make it to the top!

If we pick Ball we are trade him for sure.
What we are going to do?

Playing Ball and Russell?! UGH
Remember, we don't control our own pick in 2021.

Sixers saving some big money...maybe in anticipation of absorbing Eric Gordon possibly?

Preferred scenario would be a trade down and up for OO, Halliburton, Hayes or Okoro

If we stand pat Id draft Wiseman and look for a good 3D SF like Bey or Vassel

So I don't dislike any of the big 3, they all just scare the crap out of me for different reasons. Just wanted to say that before I'm complaining about whatever pick happens (outside of trade down).

Good move for Philly trading a late round 1st to get off one of the worst contracts in league. OKC the next few years will be interesting...make the big move or just keep rolling picks over?
