Ben Simmons and picks for Damian Lillard

Would take Ben, maxey, thybulle, and 3 picks and 3 swaps I would think

No. Ben and Maxey with a picks should do it. Lillard just has to say trade me.

It’s better than Ben for CJ straight up.

Dame and Embiid would be beasting and perfect.

I doubt Portland does that. If Lillard ever forces his way out, they will prob go for all the picks from someone, but Lillard doesn’t seem to be forcing his way out.

They're fine with racism actually. So the water bottle is much worse.

I'm sorry... you were saying something about racism?

Yes, I remember this story. Sixers dancers allegedly bullied and were racist towards one of their team members.

We were discussing fanbases. At least be good at your job if you want to troll.

I come in peace, I threw this trade up over in the trade thread and was curious your guys opinion on it.

Done. I would take the chance on Ingram

Absolutely on Ingram. Maxey to PG and slide him into SF.

We say yes, Pelicans obviously say no.

I'd do it today.

Not sure why the Pels do it (I do think Ingram and Zion is a bad pairing but I also feel like if they do trade him its for a more established guy than Garland)

Just listened to Jimmy Jackson comment on Ben Simmons. He basically said Ben does work on his game but when he does not see results he reverts back to old patterns. I say this is a classic case of someone that has had it easy all his life, in Ben's case due to talent. Now you try something new (shooting) and you suck at it so you say you know what. I don't need this I can do everything else. And then you are not pushed by the coach and organization and basically allowed to do what you want and this is the result. Like I have said before the good thing about this is that Ben has never failed so spectacularly on such a massive scale before. It's hard to sweep this one under the rug. There will be no more all star trips, no being treated like a top echelon NBA star. Fans will make fun of you everywhere you go. The only thing that will stop you from fading away into being a mediocre NBA player is improvement. He would have gone from potential to be a LBJ type player to a complete afterthought.

Recent 76ers players that have been shook.

Futlz, Shake and Simmons. Damn.

I'd almost like to think that Morey had or has a deal in place that is why Doc was so free with his critique of Simmons last night. But I feel comfortable with Morey at the helm.

How would this go down? Psst, Doc, I have a deal for Ben, after the game it's fine to say it's questionable that he'll ever win a championship. If this did happen, what would stop the other team from having second thoughts?

I say this selfishly, but burn down the future to get a superstar. Don't care if you offer pick swaps until 2040. I just want a reason to watch this team again, because I've checked out and have no interest. And honestly if they can't win a title with Embiid I'm probably done with the NBA for good anyway, so I couldn't care less what happens post-Embiid. I get that's unique to me and other fans wouldn't get on board with that, but Morey needs to stop tweeting at superstars and actually land one. Otherwise he failed here and Harris should can his ass.

I was a big fan of hiring Morey, it actually rejuvenated me as a Sixers fan who bailed on them after they let Butler go and signed Horford. After those moves they were dead to me. But Morey has just annoyed me since he's been here. He sits around and tweets at superstars all season and racks up the tampering fines. Ok, dude. That's cool and all. But now you gotta go out and actually land one. Otherwise you just look like a jackass trying to be funny. That's what he was brought here to do.

Simmons and 3 first rounders and 4 swaps. Simmons and 5 first rounders and 2 swaps. I don't care what it takes. Go out and find a way to get a title with Embiid while he still can walk upright. Or you failed your owner and the organization. I think he's a really good GM, but the dude's been living off that Harden trade for close to a decade now. Go make your "new Harden trade."

Simmons and Zion won’t work for Pelicans. That will be worst than Embiid and Simmons

I don't think it's possible. he's been the same guy since he cam into the league.

Yea, but he's gotten much better at video games.

Ben and the pick swap for Jalen flipping Green on draft night. Sign Hart (FA) and get smoking Joe Ingles for Milton + Hill and a 1st swap. Trade Thybulle for Goga and a future 1st from the Pacers.

PG - John Wall
SG - Jalen Green
SF - Josh Hart
PF - Joe Ingles
C - Joel Embiid

6th man - Seth Curry
SG - Tyrese Maxey
Backup C - Goga Bitadze
Stretch PF - Sign Glenn Rob the 3rd
Hype Man - BBall Paul
28th pick - Morey drafts a randy no name that turns out to be pretty good lol

Simmons is going to the Cavs in the proposed trade.

It’s actually a really good trade for all teams
