Re: Ben Simmons trades go here (and here only): Expect warnings if not following forum rules
I don't see Morey giving up his ability to try to trade for a superstar if he doesn't get one back for Simmons, so I don't see him taking Hayward, McCollum, or any other end-of-prime veteran back for Simmons unless they're just salary to attach value to. He's much more likely to hold out for Edwards, Halliburton, Mobley, or some other young guy(s) that will look great as a rebuilding centerpiece in a future deal. Or at least a young guy with all-star expectations (i.e. Ingram, Fox, SGA; Sexton probably doesn't make the cut) who could either stay in Philly or head out in a trade for a bigger fish.

This trade works under the cap.
Philly gets great value for Simmons and assets for a possible trade later.
Houston offloads a ton of salary and a gets a young prospect who was the youngest player in the draft.

Re: Ben Simmons trades go here (and here only): Expect warnings if not following forum rules
I'm not sure if a trade would have ever have been feasible because it still likely requires turning guys like White and Williams and future picks into more win now pieces but it's sort of a shame that Chicago jumped the gun in my view and tied up their future picks a ton.
Because a team with Simmons, Lavine, Vuc and Lonzo is pretty interesting. You're basically 3/4 of the way to building a fairly optimal lineup around Simmons.

Lot of the rest of this is rehashing old arguments and as soon as I comment on them the usual suspects will come for my head so I'm going to refrain.
But this is new and jumps out as particularly terrible for Indiana. Buddy being healthier doesn't seem like nearly enough justification for such a significant downgrade does it?

Oh, a non Simmons value question. I'm in!
I have 2 picks worth of gap between the two, and probably a few seconds as well. Not picks as juicy as the Kings perhaps, but the value gap here I have is really really large.

Yeah I originally had Brooks and Bagley going to Indiana, and Hield going to Portland.
IDK though, CJ is worth more than Hield+Beasley I would think.
Maybe Wolves should be sending out two 1sts, one going to Indiana? Or Portland gets the pick and get Hield instead of Brooks/Bagley?

They are not available now, but to move now would mean they would not be attainable later if they became available. I really don’t think it is that difficult a decision for Morley at this point.

Interesting proposal. Does the math work on the Spurs end of the transaction? I don't think it actually does.
Also, do you view Curry as an important part of the trade for San Antonio? Ideally, I'd like to keep him obviously and if he's there as more or less salary ballast (though I think he is what makes the trade illegal for San Antonio), the Sixers could just do the trade with the Spurs without him and then trade Vassell immediately for Sexton (though I might personally stop after step 1) since there is no aggregation there.
No it doesn't work math wise.
I'd be trying to replace Vassell with Lonnie Walker then add Jeffries or Eubanks. Would add another pick if needed to get that done.
White/Vassell/Keldon/Simmons/Poeltl(or Kleber? plz?) Would be the best defensive team in the league.
After suffering through years of Forbes and Derozan pretending to play defense I think it's only fair that the Spurs get to watch 2 of the best defenders I've seen that compliment each other perfectly in Vassell/Keldon play a couple years together.

The Spurs are getting Curry though. If you keep him, I'm sure they'd be removing some of the compensation.the_process wrote:Godaddycurse wrote:Spurs trade Murray, Vassell, Young, 2022 1st, 2024 1st, 2023 swap

I would cut the Cavs out, keep Curry, and pull the trigger on that deal right now.

They could pay him for one year. The Cavs are a 20 win team that might pay the tax for one year rather than lose Sexton for nothing.babyjax13 wrote:zimpy27 wrote:Philly give Simmons, Curry, Milton

I think Love suits Philly. He could play with Embiid or Reed or Niang. He'd also be a walking trade filler for Morey to play with.
Philly cannot afford to pay Sexton and Love with Embiid + Tobias. And let's be honest, Love does not fit anywhere - he's done.

Would love to move CJ for a better fit. Send MB somewhere else, send Slomo and Brooks to POR for CJ.
Zero interest in MB due to off court idiocy and NO can’t handle another PR disaster.

I definitely think Mobley could be gotten from CLE. His average case is DPOY contender with good passing for a player of his height but a questionable outside shooter, so he seems like a perfect candidate to swap for Simmons if the Cavs want to win now. The Cavs signed starter-quality bigs to long-term deals AFTER drafting Mobley. They made no progress at the SF spot in the off-season despite it being their most obvious hole. They're primed to do a deal here.
Sacramento might just be going with a guard-heavy rotation but can afford to move Halliburton or Fox for Simmons in their lineup. Their backcourt was crowded before they drafted Mitchell. Also primed to move a good young player.
You don't want to damage those relationships with your player if the deal falls through, though, so those guys aren't "available" until terms are finalized.

Love isnt bad enough of a contract for the Cavs to pay to dump. At least not now, before theyre in the tax.

I'd have Sextons value at around Thad+Milton+non-lotto FRP. So in this trade I guess Love is costing a non-lotto FRP to move. That seems about right for saving Cavs $50m salary and $40m tax next season.

Setting aside the question of Sexton's value, the Cavs don't have to move Love and Sexton together and unless the right offer comes along, there's no reason to. The Cavs don't have to move either of them.zimpy27 wrote:mademan wrote:zimpy27 wrote:PHI give Simmons, Milton, Joe
