    Naw but they could sell it to the fans.

    Then they can always go back and say they didn’t make Ben available.

    Silas with Simmons or Murray would be incredible

    His back scares me. Bad backs never get better especially at 20

    those seem like the top acceptable options at this point (whether they are available is anyone’s guess). I’m ok either way, but I think I prefer Denver.

    Murray is a borderline all star. He’s basically Lou Williams but you all are acting like he’s Steph. MPJ is an MVP type prospect. They are not even. If it’s Murray, MPJ is attached.

    Philly. It’s in the east and will have a more talented cast.

    I would lean Philly too, but if the Nuggets deal is for Murray without MPJ...a trio of Harden, Jokic, and MPJ is amazing offensively. Defense though lol.

    Yes I said that above. I stand by what I said. MPJ is the target from Denver. I still think it’s Simmons if a trade is made.

    That is about the most the Rockets could ever expect. It gives them a 24 year old all star with untapped upside, a good young defender that could potentially be a valuable starter and a young rookie that has some potential.

    The Sixers get arguably the best player in the world in his prime and a gritty PF that can hit 3’s and defend.

    Both teams should be excited but I don’t see the Sixers doing that deal.

    I value Herro over Murray. He’s overrated.

    If Jamal Murray was in a trade offer, the deal would be done!! That’s a no brainer.

    That's pretty wild. Murray is a true shot creator.
