I’ve been messing around with tradeNBA.com trade machine. Because of luxury tax and salary cap rules, it is hard to do. The Sixers have 4 top heavy salaries and then almost nothing in salary. You’d need a third team that can take some salaries.

I just did one on ESPN's Trade Machine

My 1st Attempt was successful -

Harden

for

Harris

Scott

Let's Roll Baby

Yep, Rockets would jump at that.

Realistically, any trade would have to center on either Embiid or Simmons. You could pare either one of them with Josh Richardson and make the salaries work. I don’t see that being enough.

Something the Sixers can give the Rockets is draft picks. In the next 7 drafts, the Rockets only have 2 1st rounders and 6 2nd rounders. I guess the Soxers could help replenish the Rockets draft picks on top of Embiid/Simmons and Richardson.
