I think they have to keep Paul Reed for now. His contract is not that bad and we need the insurance on the front line. Reed is an elite offensive rebounder and Drummond is an elite rebounder overall. We need the size.

Nall they going to use Reed for a trade exception. His contract 7 million but they can trade up to a player with 15 million in salary.

If they can get a legit starting 4 then I understand but we shouldn’t be quick to just give him up for nothing

would y'all kil me if i said i'd buyout simmons? give him a chance at redemption with much lower expectations where he doesn't have to be the second option, just a guy who can get rebounds and facilitate the ball :jbhmm:

Simmons plays for 2 weeks, gets a back injury, and then sits on the bench wearing LV outfits. Then he'll take another month ramping back up just to do it all again.


Embiid/PG will miss games so our other signings need to be dependable.

Bona got a standard contract so he's taking a roster spot. Reed is as good as gone.



he probably got the heads up

Who are some targets yall like for the 4 and 2 spot?

I kind of got my eye on DFS, Kyle Anderson and Malik Beasley. I’d prefer to bring Oubre off the bench

I just want to be on the record that I don’t agree with getting rid of Reed with as injury prone as Joel is, that rookie kid is not gonna be ready and Drummond will be the only other true big:hubie:


But the team having 3 max players on the roster really limits what they can do as far as depth goes so it is what it is. None of the names I’m hearing are moving the needle. They’d have to get extremely lucky and hope some decent players sign for the minimum. Starters are gonna have to carry
