Anybody else think Simmons is going to try to get himself traded to the Lakers this summer?

Simmons isn't going to try and force his way out unless the 76ers don't offer a max extension. If they fail to do that, all bets are off.

I do think he won't make major noise until he gets the first big contract. That's just the way these things work.

I was sad to learn that Joel Embiid most likely has osteoarthritis at the tender age of 25

Or that the Sixers offer him up in a trade for Anthony Davis?

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
i wanna see the sixers play Zhaire Smith more on Brooklyn's guards. He's likely the best point of attack defender they have, and it's fun when rookies make a difference.

Embiid doesn't work with Davis.

If the 76ers trade one of their young stars for Davis, it would be Embiid.

I think Embiid and Davis would be fine together as they both can play inside and outside offensively.

If you're NOLA, do you trade one Klutch client for another Klutch client?

I think Embiid and Davis would be fine together as they both can play inside and outside offensively.

Plus with all their injury issues they would only really need to play 20 games a year together

I must admit this made me laugh out loud at work.  Good thing I have my own office.

Philly should offer Embiid for Davis
then trade simmons for a good wing player like BEal

then use massive capspace on the seconda tier free agents. (offers to brogdon, middleton, young, harris, etc.)

He'll make plenty of money in LA. He's already making plenty of money outside of his NBA contract. At his age, he has a couple more big contracts in front of him no matter where he plays. I would be very surprised if Klutch doesn't try to get him moved from Philly to LA as soon as possible.
