Expanding on a previous trade rumor

Toronto trades Lowry + Davis
Toronto receives Harris (Denver) + Green (Philly) + two 2021 firsts (1 from Denver, 1 from Philly)

Denver trades Harris + Barton + 2021 first.
Denver receives Lowry + Davis

Philly trades Green + 2021 first
Philly receives Barton.

The only side issue that I see is that this trade puts Toronto slightly over the Luxury tax line. So maybe swapping Davis with Stanley Johnson may be a necessary tweak to this deal.

Like Barton to philly, but not enough improvement over Green to include a 1st rd pick. and greens expiring contract frees up 15 mill un cap space for sixers at seasons end, that flexibility is also gone . I'd give green and knicks 2nd rd 2021 for Barton, but not our 1st rd pick.

That works for me, but don't you think Denver is giving up too much wing depth?

I don't think philly has cap space with Harris embiid and Simmons getting paid.

@TTP. The "freeing up $15 mil in salary cap space" is a fallacy. Philadelphia is already projected to be over the 2021-22 salary cap ($112 4 mil) with $117.6 in guarenteed salaries and 6 empty roster spots.

Also, I doubt what is currently projected as the 46th pick motivates Denver to trade Barton.

Fred I actually agree you just put my comment in way better terms.

Harris' 20M for next season might be more than the Raptors want to take back. Denver is not likely a place Lowry wants to go though, and I doubt the Raps will send him anywhere he doesn't approve.
