Sixers off season
Draft
3. Lonzo Ball
36. Jordan Bell
39. Semi Ojeleye
46. Frank Mason III
50. Jonah Bolden (Stash)
FA
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope 4 yr max
Otto Porter jr 4 yr max (try and offer but it will most likely be matched)
PG: Ball, McConnell, Bayless, Mason III
SG: KCP, TLC, Korkmaz
SF: ROCO, Semi Ojeleye, Justin Anderson
PF: Simmons, Saric, Bell
C: Embiid, Holmes.
1.) 14 Jun 2017 11:43:35
I think KCP will be matched too but doesn't hurt to try. If I'm 76ers I'd still probably try to trade down if possible depending on what assets they get for doing so. I'd also consider trade opportunities for combo guard guys that can shoot like McCollum, Bradley, etc.
2.) 14 Jun 2017 12:44:01
Who's ROCO
3.) 14 Jun 2017 13:28:20
Knick. I think he means Robert Covington.
4.) 14 Jun 2017 16:55:14
Sixers say Simmons is PG. Even if you disagree no deal makes sense unless you understand for at least this year he is the PG. go ahead and make trades for 2018 if you think Simmons at PG will fail and want to stick him at PF or SF.

Bulls: Jahlil Okafor
Lakers 2017 1st
Philly 2017 1st
Sixers: Jimmy Butler
Who says no?
1.) 26 Jan 2017 10:14:16
Wow as much as I like Jimmy Butler, Chicago should probably take this. Lots of talent at point guard and small forward. Let's say that Philly pick is top 4 they could get either Dennis Smith, Josh Jackson, Lonzo Ball, or Jayson Tatum. I'm not mentioning Markell Fultz because I think he's the consensus #1 overal pick and let's say the Lakers pick is like 6. A duo of Ball and Tatum would be pretty nice or Jackson and Smith plus Jahlil Okafor would be very exciting core for the Bulls. The Bulls are a team that is going no where and they don't have a real building piece other than Jimmy Butler.
2.) 26 Jan 2017 13:12:28
It's tough to say as who knows if Philly is as good as they've played the last month or not. If they added Butler, then there pick looks less attractive as they probably make the playoffs. At that point Bulls may say no.
If Sixers management doesn't believe their ready yet, they probably say no.
3.) 26 Jan 2017 15:42:51
Thephilly pick would have to be the better of the sacramento and philly pick swap. That's actually even better value. I like it for the bulls. Chicago native okafor, a high lakers pick either this year or next, and a high philly sac pick. Not a bad return at all for a 27 year old butler who has played a ton of minutes in his young career
4.) 26 Jan 2017 18:22:50
Yeah I can agree with triangle o on the impact jimmy butler would have would probably lower the pick significantly. It would have to be a draft day trade
5.) 27 Jan 2017 03:42:36
As a sixers fan, I'm in.
22 Jul 2016 09:16:53
Philly: J. Okafor
Boston: J. Brown, T. Rozier.
1.) 22 Jul 2016 11:24:45
Brown not a good fit with simmons.
2.) 22 Jul 2016 13:10:58
Why is Brown not a good fit with Simmons? Brown is an athletic SF who can get to the rim, and if Coach Brown is planning to use Simmons at PG as he has suggested, throwing Oops to Brown could be entertaining.
I'm not saying I like the trade, only that those two could co-exist.
3.) 22 Jul 2016 13:27:43
Boston will not give BKN pick or Brown for Okafor - they can give 76ers a pg in Smart or Rozier, some low 1rd pick and maybe some small fillers.
4.) 22 Jul 2016 14:24:25
Because neither of them could shoot from more than 3 feet out.
5.) 22 Jul 2016 14:56:32
It would have looked batter as pick#3 (dunn) and rozier. A deal like that would just show that Danny made a mistake not making the trade at the draft. Can't see him admitting defeat like that.
6.) 22 Jul 2016 14:59:40
. also I think that if Okafors value is a bench player and low first round pick then the Sixers will obviously be keeping him. Both sides (fanbase wise ( seem to currently be ok with that.
7.) 22 Jul 2016 15:16:21
Tired of Boston and Philly trades. Boston see less value in okafor because of his past. So Philly best bet is to move on and look elsewhere.
8.) 22 Jul 2016 17:25:10
I don't want brown alone. Boston needs to give up smart or brown and Brookyln pick next year. If not, tell them to go away. I'd rather have Oakfor off the bench then give him to Boston for a lesser player.
9.) 22 Jul 2016 20:18:04
Brown isn't a lesser player. he's the 3rd overall and just hasn't had a chance to show what his potential is. Kid has the potential to be a better all around the okafor, jus tmay take time.
Hes at a position of need for the sixers.
The sixers have lost some value by clearly logjamming the big man position.
But still. tre swears Okafor is Olajuwon. or at least he has the same trade value. So it MUST be 2 top 3 pics for okafor. MUST BE!
10.) 22 Jul 2016 23:22:46
Pizza. Go away and change profiles again. We all know you freakin hamburger now.

Maybe Lakers need new fans?
Stop the crazy things and start new things! That is what Lakers shoud do!
I would like to see Ingram in L. A. and to see a young, talented team to grow!
Randle, Ingram, Clarkson, Russell . cool gang. Add a good Center and have fun!
2.) 18 May 2016 09:48:28
I ain't a lakers fan. I was just saying what I think they should do.
3.) 18 May 2016 12:01:08
I love P George
But as a Pacers, it take that trade.
4.) 18 May 2016 16:17:30
well apparently, what they should do is not follow or understand how the salary cap works.
30 Jan 2016 10:23:47
Jahlil Okafor straight up for D'Angelo Russell.
1.) 30 Jan 2016 16:36:09
believable.
2.) 30 Jan 2016 16:44:02
Russel is a bust so far. Back up who can't dribble or shoot or play any kind of decent defense.
I no longer want Russell. Guys a bust so far and I see zero improvement in half a season. Sixers pass big time! That trade has long since past as decent.
3.) 30 Jan 2016 17:04:05
Why? Is it because he's in LA? Plays for the lakers, one of the most hated teams in America? People expect immediate succes from a NINETEEN year old. 12 3 and 3 was a reseasonable expectation for him this season espically coming off the bench. You would be crazy to think a 19 year old guard would come into the league setting it on fire. Give him 2-3 years with a coach who doesn't hate him and one that doesn't have him pass the ball and just go to the corner.
4.) 30 Jan 2016 17:23:00
I pass because he can't play defense. Or dribble or shoot.
Those are kind huge flaws. He's only gotten worse since the start of the season in dribbling. Shooting has been so inefficient its scary. And his defense. I didn't even notice how bad that was until recently. I was so focused on his offensive flaws that I ignored the defense he's played. I mean people in laker land critisze okafor defense but damn. Russel can't cover anyone out there at point guard. Maybe he's a 2. I know they try him there every once in a while but he never touches the ball. Idk what la is going to do. I'm extremely disappointed in la's talent level as of now. Extremely!
Truthfully I like la a little. That's why I watch so many games of there's. My main team will always be the Sixers of course but I was hoping Sixers and la would come up to power together. So yes I've watched an unnecessary number of la games.
5.) 30 Jan 2016 17:35:15
Russell has the higher ceiling and will end up effecting the outcome of a game way more than Okafor. It's much easier for a near 7 footer to come in as a rookie and have an immediate impact than a 19 yo 6'-5" PG who's not an athletic specimen like Westbrook is. And he comes off the bench thanks to an inept coach too.
Just remember this in about five years and we'll see who the better player is and justification that the Lakers made the better pick on passing on Okafor.
6.) 30 Jan 2016 17:51:49
He's going to adjust someday. Shooting will come, he's getting open shots, I'm not worried about dribbling or shooting at all, because I know that will come along. For defense we already knew he wasn't going be good, early on he was a little better than expected on defense, but it's WAY TOO EARLY to give up on him.
7.) 30 Jan 2016 18:35:08
The king
I'll agree. Too early if your a lakers fan to give up. But the rest of the league has to go by what they see. And right now Russells value for me is nothing. His physical limitations are extremely hard to over come. i don't know too many guys who all of a sudden know how to dribble. Shooting I can give you. But dribbling is something either you have it or you don't. Russel does not. So if he can't dribble he should be a sg. But until he can hit a wide open jump shot how can he be a shootin guard.
SORRY. HONESTLY i'm JUST so damn disappointed in Russell right now. i really root for the younger guys in the league so when I see one that just completely flops it pisses me off. But I don't have to tell you that I guess. Your a bigger fan of the lakers then me.
8.) 30 Jan 2016 18:38:07
Laker dynasty.
As a lakers fans you better pray that in five years were sayin something different. Because I don't see any progress for the lakers unless they get this kid playing better. randle must learn to shoot immediately or he's a back up at best. And clarkson I think my feeling remain the exact same. Average guard in this league. Can find him anywhere. Has he over performed? Sure. But he was a second rounder so it wasn't that a hard to put perform those expectations.

What would people give up in a trade for Jahlil Okafor?
1.) 31 Jan 2016 14:09:12
There is no viable trade. Sixers fans and organization see only his points per game. Everyone else sees maturity issues and zero interest in defense. The difference in values is too much.
2.) 31 Jan 2016 15:19:35
I think the Sixers would move OK4 once they know Embiid is healthy- And/ or if the core of any deal would land the Sixers a very good player/ prospect that fills a need (SG) .
Would Phoenix move Booker or Knight or Bledsoe for Okafor?
Would LA move Clarkson or Russell for Okafor?
Toronto?
As for his defense, that's one of those things that's been perpetuated. His D has improved. His rebounding has improved. His maturity has improved. His offensive efficiency has improved. His foul shooting stinks again.
There are two different and distinct Okafors: one before Jerry Colangelo, Ish Smith and Elton Brand and one after Jerry Colangelo, Ish Smith and Elton Brand.
Its obvious. The kid that couldn't deal with losing 30 of his first 31 NBA games is gone.
3.) 02 Feb 2016 13:34:25
HAHAH you are so dillusional. So the kid that got into escalating trouble for the past year. its all changed and its obvious because of the past 3 weeks? Seriously?
Ok. so his rebounding has improved.5 rebounds a game over the past month. His defense has improved? Drop in rim protection and blocks over the past month. I fail to see how he has made these drastic steps you speak of.
What you have is a player that is a great back to the basket offensive player. Poor rebounder for his potential. That size and those hands, its a travesty he isn't pulling down 10 a game. You have a lazy, slow, unmotivated defender. So while the sixers are all in love with him, the rest of the league realizes that with him as the center piece, the team won 1 out of 30+ games. They managed that record awfulness for a reason. Adn ill give you a hint, it isn't because he's AMAZING.
It's also worth noting that of the 17 games that you claim he has VASTLY improved, its just obvious. He missed 4. The team had a 500 record during that stretch. So his amazing life alterning transformation has happened over the past 12-13 games. Good one philly. That isn't the definition of sensationalism at all ;)

Tyus and a first round pick for Nerlens and a second round pick.
18 May 2016 09:48:28
I ain't a lakers fan. I was just saying what I think they should do.
31 Jan 2016 07:15:03
Noel is worth more than that as well.
31 Jan 2016 07:14:29
Nerlens is way too valuable on defense and we can get a bigger package for Okafor, this is a terrible and stupid rebuild plan.
26 Jan 2016 00:19:25
That's a terrible trade for all teams, Noel worth more.
