Im not sure magic will consider this

I love Nerlens, and he has a tremendous upside, but I think I would think real hard about pulling the trigger on this trade. Love that backcourt of olidipo and Russell. How about LA's #1 next year(only 1-3 protected), miamis #1 this year(hopefully #11 or 12),and wroten for olidipo?
PG: Russell
SG: Olidipo
SF: Covington
PF: Noel
C: Embiid

Sixers say NOOOOOOOO.

Ugh. I think I'd have to do that trade if I'm philly. It's extreme extrememly hard to loss noel though. But with Embiid coming. I got to assume noel is best suited for the center spot. And victor olidipo I know can play the two and Arron gordan is a bench piece.
I have to try noel and Embiid together first though. So no deal.

Magic say no if they wanted Noel they would have drafted him.

That might be a fair exchange of talent. But there's no way the Sixers would do that. First, they don't need nor want Gordon. T. Robinson is already that player so acquiring Gordon doesn't help. He wouldn't be filling a need.
I like Victor O but I'm going to draft that player in the top 5. So he's also not filling a need. I know, he's good. But he's not filling a need.
So essentially I"m losing Noel (creating a need for a rim protector) and Wroten and a #2 for no reason at all.
If I'm the Sixers I keep Noel, Wroten and the pick and simply draft a top 5 guy and let T. Robinson keep doing his thing.

Magic don't draft Nerlens because of his injury not because they don't want him.

Ookay Philly fan, please stop overvaluing your players. Noel is nice, Vic is better. You make this trade, and then draft Towns to add a really PF to put beside Embiid.

USA: I agree. But since the Sixers did actually draft Noel, get zero production out of him for a full year, take all the risk, and have that risk pay off, then if Orlando now wants him, they'll have to pay up. Otherwise they're getting a free lunch- the future of Noel without the previous risk of Noel.
