    I wonder what Phoenix is doing. They are going to be active in trades I think.

    They have Jackson, TJ Warren and now Bridges all at the SF position

    Thinking about it more, I like the deal for the Suns. Weird decision for the Sixers. Smith is more of a project.

    Maybe they're confident they'll get a wing in FA? I don't know that Smith is ready to start right away.

    My head is gonna explode if the 76ers did this trade because of a Fultz/Saric trade for Leonard gets announced in the next hour.

    Wow...what a weird a** trade...that Miami unprotected 2021 first could be nice though for the Sixers...The HEAT could be really bad by then.

    I guess Suns want to have Josh Jackson and Bridges as their wing players going forward? What about TJ Warren? Just a very odd trade.

    but we've seen from the recent trades including both our 2nd rounders I can't see that allowing up to move up all these spots. At most I think it helps us move up 1-2 spots max

    I like DiVincenzo, but there's some guys I'd prefer here. Lonnie Walker, Kevin Huerter, Robert Williams, even Aaron Holiday maybe.

    I thought the Spurs would end up with Troy Brown, I thought that was a bit of a reach.

    I'd be surprised if they pass on Huerter here.
