Umm I'd have to do that trade. If we don't give up John in that, that'll make the Hawks a top 4 seed in the east. Barring Embiid staying healthy and losing some weight in the off sesaon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I been on record that I wouldn't trade him straight up for the #1 overall pick. There is a massive gap between a good young player which JC is, and a max contract guy which he's not. But despite that "massive gap" you think a team is going to trade a high impact All Star for him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did asked what would Atlanta do if they landed #1, and he said they will likely flip it. There are some extremely attractive rentals on the open market and this might make Atlanta think about getting one of them considering where they want to go as an org without trading a core piece. No, Giannis is not available, FYI. Huh? We are trading up from #6 to #1 to flip it for a rental? Of the rental players, none are worth #1, or maybe I'm missing someone.

Moderators macdaddy Posted October 14, 2020 Moderators Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I'd be interested in Simmons but not sure who i'd be willing to give up. can't imagine they are trading simmons for Heurter. I'm honestly not that interested in Embiid. Just doesn't seem like he's going to hold up. Siakam. I don't know. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin capstone21 Posted October 14, 2020 Admin Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Super said all star not meaning all star this year ... who plays d and will help with the offense my prediction is still Simmons but agree that it could also be Paul George I would love Paul George two years ago but I don’t want a 30 year old George.

It seems like this one could take awhile. It likely depends on the draft is what I imagine. I'm starting to think we aren't talking about the same players. Is this the 2 week old proposal?

If it is straight up it is for JC as he is the one who has comparable trade value to Simmons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin capstone21 Posted October 14, 2020 Admin Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Pascal is locked in for four years (contact is a bit ugly) but he is a young defensive big who can hit threes and score ... he doesn’t rebound as well as JC (yet he is solid) but Clint is here to make up for that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High5 Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I don't think Philly is trying to trade Simmons for a PF and Embiid is way too good for a straight up trade. Porzingis doesn't make sense either as he's a much better fit for Dallas and we don't want his knee problems. Siakam makes some sense. But I don't really believe there's a straight up blockbuster trade out there for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My phone hasn't been hot but once in a few weeks. and I was right not to speak up. Not the dead deal I was told. for the board....teams have inquired about JC, Hunter and Huerter and we've listened to all but not seriously considered one in those deals. Teams inquired about Cam and we laughed heartily with speaker phone on at each pitch. Teams have also inquired about Capela as well and I do not know how that turned out but I'm assuming it went no where. In most cases, teams have been interested in using us as a 3rd team in trades and not directly except for a few pitches. These are all pitches right now. Very little in the trade world is serious yet and won't be for about 6 days or so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Peoriabird Posted October 14, 2020 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 @NBASupes...So John is now not a part of the core and is on the trading block? Is this how you build team chemistry? What about the notion of trading the #1 pick for a rental. Is Schlenk on drugs or did your source get this one wrong?
