(Edit: It's Official) 76ers and Celtics discussing trade involving the #1 pick

[Optimus Prime]

Means Ainge wants to commit to IT long term, interesting.

I don't see Ainge paying IT 30 mil a year for 5 years. He could just be banking on Heyward coming, there being plenty of guards available at #3 and they still got Brooklyn's pick next year.

 

[Human Torch]

Fultz can play off ball and create for himself, it'd be sort of like Bron and Kyrie.

Hinkie still blessing us from the grave

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

Man, I just don't like it. He seems like a great fit and he's the best player in the draft. Why talk yourself out of that?

I guess he sees Jaylen Brown being a small ball 4 forever...but man, just doesn't seem right to me.

Or Danny sees Jaylen Brown and Josh Jackson being the Paul George/Kawhi Leonard combo Indiana almost had


Not saying they'll become that but maybe Danny figures they'll develop/learn how to shoot

Can Somebody with a better basketball mind than me explain with our offense looks like if we send out?

Fultz
Covington
Simmons
Saric
Embiid

How well do Simmons and fultz compliment each other ?

I think it would be more like this

Fultz
Luwawu / Stauskas
Covington
Simmons / Saric
Embiid / Holmes


If we keep Dario I think he'll be the 6th man type for us. And Yes Fultz is literally the perfect compliment to Ben

Pay Patty Mills or draft Frank Jackson/Kadeem Allen. All great guards to put next to Fultz.

We already have enough talent on this team if we pull this off. They'd just need to mature and we'd have to add pieces through FA to fill in the holes

why trade future draft picks when the top 3 players in this draft seem to be even..

 

[AAKing23]

Breh

 

[e001]

If Ainge is stacking picks again he's probably aiming to trade for a superstar in a team full of scrubs who walk around the 10th seed and have no future.

If Ainge trades for AD he'll be the GOAT GM.

They are not even, Fultz is in his own tier and he's the perfect fit. Who cares about the future picks

 

[qnsfinest]

If I'm Philly, there is no way I'm trading my number 3 pick and future first rounders for just the number 1 pick.

The most I would do is my number 3 and possibly okafor for that number 1 pick.

No they don't at least not yet and the two most promising players haven't been able to stay on the court.

I'd keep the future picks.

Yes we do. Mind you we still have our own future picks we would be trading the Lakers and Kings picks.
