[The Vertical] Trade Discussions between 76ers and Hawks centering around Teague and Noel

Means Horford is gone

 

Lmao Sixers

 

Would Atlanta rather have Brewer and our 44th pick maybe???

 

Having a damn draft pick sure would be nice right about now....

Rockets need to get on a trade for Teague.

Ariza, Beverley, Capela for Teague, Sefolosha.

I imagine Ariza and Beverley would have some trouble integrating into D'Antoni's offense, given their average ball-handling and passing skills. But they would immediate fit into the Hawk's defensive-mindedness. And Capela is perhaps just as good a young prospect as Noel. For the Rockets, getting a top-quality point guard to run D'Antoni's offense should be a high priority.

 

Always thought this made plenty of sense for both teams, and I even told my pals this.

Gives Schroder the reigns and allows Noel to replace Horford
76ers clear up big men while getting a true skilled PG.

 

I told you Colangelo is going to build a team of proven players...he doesn't give a **** about picks.

If this trade goes down they'll probably look to trade Okafor too, i'm sure they are ready if Butler becomes available...then they'll eventually look for a center in free agency to pair with Embiid. Wouldn't be shocked if they start the season with:

Noah
Anderson
Simmons
Butler
Teague

 

And yeah, if this is true, it probably means that Horford is gone.

 

is philly stupid? they already have a very good point guard

 

At least they are finally getting a competent point guard. Guess they are betting on Jahlil and Embiid to live up to their potentials.
They are going to need to surround Simmons with shooters as well. I would even trade Jahlil at this point as well to get a stretch 4 on the squad.

Pray that Ben is the next LeBron.

 

Does this mean the return of Ish the Dish?

 

Ish is a FA

 

Nice, Horford is ours

 

I always wanted Teague. He's the perfect fit for us.

Should've done a sign and trade before the deadline for Horford, Teague and Bazemore for Dwight, Ariza and filler.

 

Who's gonna play center here????

 

Lol, If that offer were possible... You have to believe Hou would have done it. I don't think Atlanta is that stupid.

 

funny that PHI traded Jrue for Nerlens only to be in the same spot 3 years later, if they were to get Teague...

 

Well, Holiday had a stress fracture in his foot, that's probably why they traded him for Noel and a pick.
