The talk this NBA Offseason has been centered around Ben Simmons and how Philadelphia can center a package around Simmons to land themselves another all star to go alongside Embiid. The problem is, what is Philadelphia can not land an all star for Simmons, then what do they do? We're going to break it down here.
The 76ers playmaking was arguably "exposed" this offseason with a lack of experienced point guard presence alongside Ben Simmons. Some names that Philadelphia may look to acquire could be named likes Colin Sexton, Kyle Lowry and Terry Rozier.
The Sixers could also benefit from landing more shooting this offseason as well as size.
Possible 76ers Trade Scenarios:
Cleveland and Philadelphia
Cleveland Receives: Tobias Harris, Shake Milton & George Hill
Philadelphia Receives: Colin Sexton, Kevin Love & Taurean Prince
Why this is good for the 76ers?
This actually addresses two of Philly's major issues. A true point guard and a stretch big man. Yes, Kevin Love has battled injuries but he is expected to be fully cleared for the start of the season. Love would be a great veteran along side Embiid. The potential lineup would be
Sexton
Curry
Simmons
Love
Embiid
Detroit and Philadelphia
Detroit Receives: George Hill, Shake Milton and a 2nd Round Pick
Philadelphia Receives: Jerami Grant
It may be a low return for Pistons but it would clear around $10 million in cap space for a future rebuild and a young core looking to grow. Shake Milton has done good things with Philadelphia and could help this young Pistons team. The Potential Lineup would be:
Simmons
Curry
Grant
Harris
Embiid
Toronto and Philadelphia
Toronto Receives: George Hill, Tobias Harris, Matisse Thybulle and 2 Second Round Picks
Philadelphia Receives: Pascal Siakam and Chris Boucher
Philadelphia may have to swap those two second round picks for a first to land Toronto's All Star but this could be the piece that would help the 76ers. With that being said, they would address the size issue on the team but would really need to land themselves a scoring guard. The potential lineup would be:
Maxey
Curry
Siakam
Simmons
Embiid
Philadelphia is expected to be a very active team in this years offseason.
