I’ve been trying to find a way to unload both Tobias and Simmons in a three way, but I think a fourth team needs to be involved. It’s not a sexy trade, and will probably induce groans/eye rolls but here goes. Maybe someone else can be inspired and put a better spin on it.
With this trade, the Sixers are $632K under the tax, FWIW per fanspo
Minnesota trades D’Angelo Russell (30/2) plus an undetermined amount of picks and swaps for Ben Simmons.
Charlotte trades Gordon Hayward (30/3) and Ish Smith for Tobias Harris (36/3) and... Andre Drummond (giving them the center they need and creating a huge hole for us).
Philly trades Simmons, Tobias, and Drummond for Russell, Hayward, Ish, and a number of picks and swaps depending on any balancing needed.
Philly rolls out:
Russell/Ish
Curry/Maxey
Green/Thybulle
Hayward/Reed
Embiid/Bassey
I welcome the critique! I think this would make Thybulle expendable and that we would need a reliable backup center for Embiid. I’m sure we could string something up to get someone serviceable somewhere.
