    I think I might have come up with a trade idea that may work for all teams. It's a 3 team trade involving Houston, Philly and Chicago:

    Chicago gets - Ben Simmons
    Philly gets - James Harden
    Houston gets - Zack Levine, players and picks.

    What do you guys think?

    This deserves its own thread.

    Those picks better all be lottery kind and the player besides Levine better be young studs. Otherwise he’ll no.

    Philly rapes everyone in this deal. Houston gives up the best player in the deal and gets the worst assets back. Stone is no dummy

    This trade seems.... random. If only there was a place for trades of this nature.

    A 25 year old player that gives you 26/5/5 and 38% from distance sucks!?! How many other 25 and under players are doing that in the NBA?

    Definitely deserved its own thread. Something this earth-shattering shouldn't be lost in the many other threads already in existence for trade ideas.

    no we get Simmons I rather take a guy whos already and allstar and locked up and young.

    I’m not even a big Simmons guy but he strikes me as a player that could attract talent moving forward because of his style of play.

    Zach is cool but no thanks for Harden I guess the picks are intriguing but it better be 3 1sts with no restrictions.

    And even that I rather have Simmons him and Wood would be interesting to build around if you could dump wall and Gordon so you can go after someone big.

    Cool. I was just thinking we needed at least 7-8 more random Harden trade threads.

    If we do a 3 way trade involving Simmons, ide rather do it with Denver and we get back Murray and MPJ

    LOl, its hard to judge this trade without more specifics on what “players” means.
