Interesting Trade Ideas Article

Philly loves Thybulle; they're not going to give him up as a throw-in. He's already one of the best wing defenders in the NBA.

And I like Tobias but he's making $40 million in 2024. The Jazz would be him, Rudy, and Donovan and nine minimum salary guys, and Tobias isn't good enough to justify that. No thanks.

Much more into that three-way trade; it's possible (minus Thybulle) and makes more sense than Tobias.
 
Umm ... what's the article this comes from?

Haven't been looking around much, but I don't detect any desperation for the Sixers in getting off of Harris's contract now. Especially for Conley (I saw one piece debating the merits of trading Harris for Chris Paul), and especially adding in all the extra goodies to a trade. I think if this was floated on a Philly site, they'd probably:

a) not be all that enthusiastic about Conley, believing (rightly or wrongly that) he's pretty washed
b) insist that it's the Jazz that would need to give up the draft picks/better role players if they're going to be giving up an all-star adjacent player in the prime of his career
 
I think Conley for Horford is a lot more realistic from Philly’s perspective. Plus, I think Harris is a poor defender.
I would consider Conley for Horford and Richardson. I really like Richardson and think he would be amazing next to Mitchell. Horford and Gobert would have a lot of same strengths and challenges as Favors and Gobert, but Horford has better playmaking and range. The team should be much better defensively and hopefully not hinder the offense.

Horford is definitely overpaid, but he has fewer years and dollars on his deal and because his last year isn’t fully guaranteed he could be a good future trade piece going into that last year of the contract.

Horford is 34 and some change rn. No way you want that guy for at least 2 more years, likely 3, at $27mil/year. Conley could be come a bench star if we resigned him. Horford would be a cheerleader and spokesman in a mummies body with that age/mileage.
 
Doc Rivers turned Tobias Harris into a “max” player. I think a big reason he got the Philly job is to help turn Harris back into a max player. Philly will try to trade Horford, but will stick with Harris, EmBiid and Simmons as their Big 3.
