    Morey would get a 30-for-30 with that power play

    Dwight would fit in here more than anywhere else. He's been here a little while already. He has already helped the team get further than they have in years. Plus he knows how to play with the guys on the team after having a few seasons with them.
    Breaking up the core of this team is not the answer. It will only set them back.

    Atl wants to tell Durant to join with Horford and Dwight, but couldn't the Rockets just say join us with Harden and Dwight?

    Is it possible to sign Durant and Horford and keep Dwight?

    I can already see it....

    Draymond: Say bro, protect the rim, catch lobs, set picks, and rebound, thats all we need from you.

    Dwight: :'(

    Why is no one else talking about this? Surprised it doesn't have its own thread actually. And is this Fischer guy legit?

    Once the 76ers GM said to Morey, "You do know that Hinkie is gone, right?" and hung up, yeah, "no truth at all to the rumor".

    :) Who knows. There's so much made up these days.

    Too bad this isn't true. It'd give us a great platoon of young athletes at center and would get us to ~$52 million in cap space, enough to sign Conley and Durant

    Conley/Goudelocke/Terry
    Harden/McDaniels/Payton
    Durant/Dekker/Gonzagadude
    DMo/Beasley/Harrell
    Noel/Capela/Chinanu

    :cool:

    If we could get Conley and Horford, and Dwight went to the Moon to play for the Lunar Lunatics, I'd still be pretty excited. Harden, Conley, and Horford could be the basis for a pretty solid team. Tinker with adding to those three and we could make some noise, in my opinion.

    I agree, we'd be good. But not as good as

    Curry
    Thompson
    AI
    Durant
    Green

    I agree with you but then again who would be?

    If harden can return to his top 5 mvp caliber self which I think honestly is a given then a core around him of conely and Horford is a solid start. From there you still have ariza bev Capela beasley KJ Harrell dmo?

    That's a really good team that would still have room to add pieces next offseason thru fA or trade.

    Crap. But thanks for the clarification. Beverley and Ariza actually make sense for the Sixers if their new point will be Ben Simmons.

    Dwight moving on is overdue.

    No, the Rockets need to renounce Howard's bird rights to clear the cap hold to get the other players. If they went the sign and trade route, they'd be hard capped and I don't think the Rockets want to go that route again.

    the Rockets need to make a Max offer to Andre Drummond.. More and likely the Pistons would match, but worth a try
