    “According to Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report, the Sixers and the Rockets could explore a deal that would send Horford to Houston and Eric Gordon to Philadelphia. For the deal to work under the NBA’s collective bargaining agreement, the Rockets would need to add more players to match the Sixers’ outgoing salary. However, if the trade becomes a reality, Buckley believes that it would help both teams fill certain needs in their roster.”

    If the pieces don't fit, bring in worse pieces.

    I’ll take Tobias Harris if we are taking a bad contract.

    Oof, that lineup of Westbrook, Simmons, Embiid would be the worst shooting team in history. No way Philly does that even though I'm sure they'd love to move off of both of those contracts.

    No. Just no.

    Trade Eric Gordon for James Johnson or Myles Turner.

    This should be moved to random trades plus it's bleacher reporting this.

    Inquisitr (?) is a BS website. This is pulling from a fan article that is 100% pure speculation, saying nothing more than "Sending (Horford) to Houston for Eric Gordon and filler has win-win potential."

    Not a rumor. It's a random trade idea.

    I suggest to get Jordan and then trade Gordon for Kevin love. 1st thing is to change a new coach and then discuss with the new coach which player does he wants.
