OKC may want to cash a pick for Schröder or Adams, nobody can say how this Oladipo-situation goes on. Maybe SAS wants to get rid of DeRozan or even Aldrige. Aaron Gordon will be traded eventually.
Horford doesn't work in Philly. Rozier is overpayed and redundant.
None of the Conley, Drummond, Love and Griffing fits to what we need. Conley really dropped of the cliff and was at a level of a back up PG last season. Love and Griffin are not expiring in 2021, they are on terrible contracts and they don't play defense. Drummond is just extremely bad fit.
We need a 3-D wing. Schroeder, Adams, DeRozan, Aldridge, Rozier are not it. Gordon is, but I can safely say he is worth more than #18 and back up PG.
Horford is interesting, but no way Philly is trading him just for salary dump. They want players back because they are in full win now mode. I am not giving THJ or any serious role player for Horford contract, even if they attach a pick and forgotten youngster like Zhaire Smith. However, if they attach Richardson...
Without going into top tier players, the profiles we are looking for:
- OPJ, Gordon, Oubre, Morris, Winslow, Richardson, Covington. None of them will be available without serious assets or players
- poor man options (trade): Osman, O'Neale, Aminu, Prince, Young
- free agents (poor man): Jones Jr, Hernangomez, J. Jackson, Harkless, Crowder
