Good luck with that plan lol
Lillard is a popular player. I can see free agents wanting to join him in Portland. Unfortunately, there don't seem to be a lot of good free agents available. I guess if they get Brad Beal?
Simmons and/or Harris might very well be available this summer. I could totally see the Sixers putting it to the Nets for not trading them Harden now and basically trading Simmons somewhere for draft picks and then turning around and attaching a draft pick to Harris to move off him and create enough cap room to sign Harden outright and give the Nets nothing. Morey has done that sort of thing before when he acquired Chris Paul from the Clippers and I could see it again. The Blazers would now be in a position to absorb either contract and get a solid 2nd player around Lillard for nothing in the case of Harris or draft picks in the case of Simmons.
