although it's intriguing -

Butler can't get along with KAT and Wiggins and wants to be 'the man'

I don't see him getting along with Embiid and Simmons whos personalities are far more polarizing than KAT/Wiggins -plus think of the assets you'd have to give up for a potential 'rental' who bolts (unless they got a deal worked in where he signs longterm)

to me some players are the perfect 3rd piece - this was always Iggy to me - funny how years ago there were always Iggy for Love rumors - what did Iggy prove to be in time - a perfect 'piece'. Butler wants to be the man. We don't need that - we need that special complimentary piece to go along with Embiid/Simmons who isn't going to stir the pot and is fine with being 3rd banana and not the star.

I just disagree. For the Sixers to compete for a championship, they need another star. Butler can be that guy. Looking at the free agent landscape next offseason, there is a good chance that the Sixers may not get anyone. Almost all the free agents seem to be going elsewhere. Thompson will stay with Golden State and he is who they need more than anyone. Bring Butler in and they can compete this season.

you just hit the nail in the head with the guy I want.

I drool over the thought of Simmons dropping dimes to Klay on the perimeter - throw the moon, stars and liberty bell to him.

here's an interesting thought that I've never seen discussed and may be 'off the wall'.

but KD has acted 'off the wall' over the last few years.

why not Philly for KD?

he slots in at SF perfectly and has had some 'friendly' jabs with Embiid in the media.

why not be that 'Alpha' and 'Dog' which LeBron didn't want to be (funny - Steve Harvey was on Stephen A. Smith's show yesterday and stated the same thing I was chirping for years - if Lebron wanted to be that Alpha and Dog he would have went to Philly where it was all set up for a dominant run instead of going Hollywood and playing in Kareems, Magics, Wilts, Kobes, Shaqs shadows......it was a punk move

same thing applies to KD

he comes here - it's 3 straight titles.
