Are you kidding me? Tobias is averaing 21 ppg and has elite .434 percentage from beyond the arc. That's a massive massive acquisition. That's like getting a superstar! They gave up way too much for someone they could have signed as a FA this summer if they dump Jimmy Butler. Who's to say they could have signed him though - i.e. if Harris would have went there?
We thought this last year with the LeBron's and PGs of the world - meanwhile Ersan and Marco walked as we were waiting to land a big fish and were trying to have cap space.
According to Woj - the plan is to resign both Butler and Harris during the offseason. It is a lot to give up (Shamet and 2021 pick pains me) - but it sounds like the plan is to re-sign both.
Curious to see what the end of the day brings. i.e. if they flip Butler and Fultzy to further reshape the team. I don't think I'd max Butler as this point - but it's not my money - and if you guarantee me a Big 4 of Tobias, Simmons, Embiid, Butler for years to come - with Redick and who knows what the buyout period brings to shape the bench - I'm not complaining. That team at least competes for the East.
Key to me is reshaping the bench as it's still thin. Apparently they have their eyes on Lin and Matthews for backcourt help

Kings get Harrison Barnes from Mavs
Nice vet pickup for a playoff push - they're the 9th seed in the West - a nice surprise and young exciting team.
Think Barnes had a fairly large contract (somebody correct me if I'm wrong - signed from the Warriors a couple of years back - don't know how many years are left on it) - Mavs rebuilding with Doncic and Porzingis coming back next year.

Bulls give up Portis and a 2nd rounder for Otto Porter and Washington takes Jabari Parker. As a bulls fan, I love it. Parker was pretty much dead weight correct?
Figured he would have been bought out and nobody would take him. Shame. Kid just seemed to never recover from that horrible knee injury and apparently was a horrible defender.
Doesn't Porter have a huge contract? Guess they made salaries match with the Parker dump.
Dead weight indeed. They have up on him quick, no desire to play defense, they went about a month without even playing him until some injuries. Porter is at 20m.

It makes absolutely no sense. Washington gets the WAY better side. They basically get a pick and dump bad salaries for nothing.

Sixers get Tobias Harris, Mike Scott and Boban for: Chandler, Muscala, Shamet, 2020 First Round Pick, Miami 2021 First Round Pick, 2 2nd Rounders. Well - Woj is reporting Harris intends to resign with them this summer. Love the move. Hate giving up Shamet and that Miami 1st. Curious to see Boban backing up Embiid. Tobias, Butler, Simmons, Embiid. Intriguing. The Clippers made out like bandits on this. Said no one with a brain ever.

A 26 year old potential all-star for no defense Portis and waste of space Parker doesn't make sense? Why do you believe that? I should preface that by saying I didn't like the Hutchinson pick as he reminds me too much of Denzel Valentine. And very few seconds round picks end up being anything.

What is Chicago trying to do here? That is what I am wondering. Maybe he can help move along the development of the young guys. I can see that maybe. The Wizards are in a great position now. This trade solved a lot of their problems.

This trade solved a lot of their problems. The wizards problem is Wall won't play again until 2021. They are blowing it up and going into rebuild mode. Much like the Bulls, top free agents aren't going to Washington. As a bulls fan, I have to hope that Markkanen, Carter jr, and Levine can get it done. Now they've added, in my estimation, a pretty good 3&D wing, and probably better than any FA who would have come along the next few years. I mean, what should the bulls do? Admit Levine and Dunn aren't the answer and just tread water for the next 4 years?

A 7 or 8 seed every year and a first round exit. Sure, it is fun that the team is competitive, but after a while it gets old.

The Bucks and Raptors just got much better too after these trades. The East is going to be crazy this year. Boston might actually be the fourth best Eastern team, which is nuts.

The Clippers made out like bandits on this. Said no one with a brain ever. They got Shamet and 4 draft picks for a player they’re not going to give a max deal to this summer anyways. You’re clearly the brainless one.

Fultzy gets traded to the Magic!
sixers land Jonathon simmons and a 1st and 2nd round pick (curious to see if that 1st Rounder is highly protected which I assume it is - i.e. like Top 20 and if it doesn't convey it turns into 2 2nd Rounders)
well - it had to be done if the plan is to in fact sign both harris and butler this offseason.

What a waste. What a headcase he is. Enjoy Andrew Bynum Jr., Orlando. He’s your problem now.

aj/shady/hofsake - what can you tell me about James Ennis III?
assuming he's a dud as the Sixers just got him for future considerations from the Rockets (that to me screams cash)
on another notes it's been reported Wesley Matthews intends to sign with the Pacers when he's bought out by the Knicks. Sixers were gunning for him - why would he join the Pacers when Oladipo is toast if he wants to win?
