The ONLY defender on the roster that can consistently space the floor, BTW. The whole value aspect of a deal for Lowry sucks any way you slice it.

If we're putting Maxey and 1st rounders on the table, call up Chicago.

In addition to being a bad meme this doesn’t even make sense with most people here being on board with discussing that sort of trade. Try harder or go somewhere else.

Kyle is a legacy player for Tampa. He's fine there. Let him retire a Raptor and we can keep our pick(s!), Maxey and Seth. The man is older than I am for darn sake.

Buy out your old, tiny meatball so he can join us the right way. Through the buyout market.


Point is, outside of defense, Green provides nothing in the playoffs.

If the 76ers trade for Lowry you likely get a difference maker for this year and the next 2.

Green's shooting in the playoffs the last 4 years has gotten so bad, the Lakers let him walk after all.

You can't take an MVP level year from Embiid for granted. This could be his peak right now. Not the time to be penny pinching on marginal assets.

I was going to say...

Why is this dude pre-loading memes and unleashing them when I'm really the only person pushing back. Majority would do it.

Don't worry about the poor true bake percentage right now. His cook efficiency will get better over time.

If the price for Lowry is like 65% of the price for Lavine, just go the extra 35% and get Lavine.

Personally I would've viewed Lowry at more like 50% if that, thats just me.

Wait, did that photoshop together a bunch of images with some captions just to make fun of fans on a board he's lurking on?

That's the point.

I woudn't give significant assets for Lowry. He's too old.

I rather keep them and make a trade for a realistic core piece for the next 3 to 5 years at least.

I honestly don't care how much Lowry gets paid if he were on the Sixers we r going over the soft cap regardless and it would be a short-term deal seriously this board cracks me up sometimes about that stuff posters act like its their money sometimes.

The issue I have with Lowry is I hate him as a player. I can't stand watching him If he could tone down the flopping and complaining to the refs on every play he probably be worth a couple of 2nds and maybe a milton Plus filler assuming he resigns.

Edit scratch that I didn't know he was making 30 million which means the only way to trade for him is green plus a ton of filler. That would mean to me anyways they would get nothing else other then possibly a couple of 2nds.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
