    If I were the gm of the 76ers, here's what I would do.

    I would explore trade options, dangle Jahlil Okafor to the thunder, trying to get them to give up Steven Adams.

    The next thing I'd do would be to offer the #1 pick in the draft to Utah for Rudy Gobert.

    Next I would draft Tyler Ulis. I would try to move up to get him if I have to.

    Rudy Gobert
    Steven Adams

    Tyler Ulis.

    With these guys you can build a core.

    There are obviously other moves, but I would try to establish a core. Gobert and Adams would be a boon if I could get them for that.

    It's a process. I think that Gobert and Adams would lock up your interior defense and make the team top 10 in defense from the moment they put on a uniform.

    Of course you don't have a star yet, but what you do have is a core, and a style of play. I think people would think you are crazy, they wouldn't know how to deal with you if you told them this is what you wanted.

    Gobert and Adams are winners. I know this. Ingram and Simmons like sexy but that don't mean a whole lot.

    Conversly, I wouldn't give up the #1 pick in the draft for James Harden or Kyrie Irving. I value Gobert a lot more than these guys.

    You should play Franchise Mode in NBA 2K and do that.

    Trade Noel to Hawks for Teague
    Offer Bradley beal max
    Draft Ben Simmons
    Keep okafor
    Go after Harrsion Barnes or some top small forward for your second max cap space slot and your line up looks like this
    Pg Teague
    Sg Beal
    Sf Barnes
    Pf Simmons
    C okafor

    Lol the core is Adams and gobert. What a terrible mix at the 4 and 5. That team is worse than what philly is now.

    A core of big men who can't score well, is not good.

    Isn't Noel a better Gobert (talking potential here).

    They need to pair Noel with a PG (the previous idea of Teague sounds good) or a Point forward (Simmons is the most obvious)... or get both.

    Simmons reminds me so much of Magic Johnson. I'm confused it's not really mentioned.
