Ben Simmons Trade Thread part V

[Stanford]

I assume he is alluding to installment payments in Simmons's contract, which it appears that 25% of his yearly salary is due on Oct. 1. That's a little over 8 million - in other words, not going to be a factor whatsoever. That money is getting paid regardless.

So other players don't have these payments due? We wouldn't have to pay for the salaries of the players coming back in a deal?

And as you said, there's 0 percent chance Tyrese Maxey would be included for essentially 8 million in cash. Not a chance.

If they wait until after the 1st they can no longer use that bargaining tactic.

I had no idea about this October first deadline thing. You're saying that if a player in on your roster before October 1st, you're responsible for paying him his entire salary, but if you trade for him after the 1st, you only have to pay him half? Even if it's October 2nd? If that's the case, wouldn't the Sixers just end up paying the full salary of whoever they take back in any deal before the 1st?

If the 76ers trade ben before the first they do not have to pay half of his contract which is due on Oct 1.

When do they have to pay the salaries of the players coming back?

[Stanford]

Doc is one of the worst people to have in this situation

That im unsure of i just know what they owe Ben since its been in the news everywhere . Regardless would a owner want pay player no value in return or pay a player whos trying help him win championship.

[Negrodamus]

How long into the season of fining him for no-shows will the team reclaim his salary?

Dude, if the players you're getting back also receive half their salary on the first, then it would be irrelevant when you make the deal because salaries have to match.

Regardless would a owner want pay player no value in return or pay a player whos trying help him win championship

wtf

[Mik317]

Ben is not here...but you know who is here? DirectTV

[Negrodamus]

More Pompey pls.

how? So as owner you want pay ben to do nothing for your team? I mean that's what going happen when the 1st goes by. The players you get back will contribute … Ben will not.

[Ballerhogger]

Morey... Ben is not coming back...

[Stanford]

So as owner you want pay ben to do nothing for your team?

I want to get a return that increases the chances of winning a title in the next three years. Giving away Tyrese Maxey to save 18 million dollars and zero salary cap does the opposite.

[Mik317]

yeah we aren't trading Maxey...

he is our starting PG right now and Doc and Morey rave about him.

Not happening unless its for Dame and thats not happening either sooooo,.

They do, but I believe structures can vary. [url]

Regardless, this is a non-factor. Whether $16 million or $8 million, we are talking about a franchise altering trade. They are not going to part with Maxey for the sake of $16 million.

[Murray_17]

Morey is such a liar

[Negrodamus]

Daryl hated that possible move for PG depth question. "Love the team that we have" with 1 guy who's barely a point guard.

[Stanford]

Doc is making big statements about Maxey. Hopefully that means he'll get a long leash as the starter this year.

[Stanford]

"I think Drummond is a big pick up for us"

We're screwed, lads

[Ballerhogger]

Doc coaching limits will be tested if they dont replace ben on defense , see what happens.... 1st in the league last year.
