    No. We could do better than Whiteside, now adding Holmes would be a great trade.

    Whiteside & Hield would match salaries only reason why I'm saying he too can be in the package. I also think he's a better rim protector than Drummond who probably will get atleast a MLE offer from multiple teams. ‍♂️

    Whiteside is an Ufa, but actually Holmes would be within the salary range for a trade for Kuz and KCP. 26 million vs 27

    I'd really like to have another player that can create off the dribble and get buckets. Guard, small forward doesn't matter. I think we will have options at center regardless

    can't stress enough: the center we need is a vet min. look elsewhere with the MLE or trades.

    I agree with the exception for me being Myles Turner. If he becomes available for what we can package, I get him in trade and solve the 5 spot for as long as AD is here.

    Doesn’t hurt my feelings one bit to see Doc and Embiid choke at home in game 7.

    So...do you guys think Lebron and AD could make Ben Simmons a better player? He and AD would be a nightmare combo on defense.

    We already have Lebron with a lot of shooting woes we don't need another max guy added to the lineup with similar issues

    I would hate to be the Sixers

    Next 3 years Harris owed $36mil, $37 mil and $39 mil
    Next 4 years Simmons owed $33 mil, $35 mil, $37 mil, $40 mil
    Next 2 years Embiid owed $31 mil and $33 mil

    Doc is owed $8mi/yr for the next 4 years. Good luck with all this Morey
