    Zach would be a horrible addition. This team is completely in the hands in of the front office. We need additional ball handling, playmaking, 3pt shooting, size at the guard & size the pf position. The Bucks, Boston, and most of the teams in the west all have size in the frontcourt. The 76ers don't have 1 true pf on the team with size that can play next to Embiid. Brogdon & a stretch 4 would solve our problems.

  4. @leoclassics5313

    Im so scared whoever we trade for they gonna add Pat Bev in the package. Might be a hot take but we need vets like that come play offs. Ones who play D and can hype up the stars in the big moments when they playing bad.

  6. @kevinhollis5705

    Zach Lavine would be a terrible idea for the Sixers. He's a volume shooter which would take shots away from Embiid and Maxey, not a good defender, horrific contract and not a good fit. I'll definitely pass.

  8. @jesscrich13

    I mean is this even a question 🤷🏽‍♀️Sixers need to just get better fitting players around embiid and Maxey. And with Nick nurse they will be just fine.

  11. @godfr012

    They pay popovich a lot and they're tanking losing 17 in a row. Hard to win with young teams. Plus, why over achieve your first season? Try to get 1 more pick and then go from there

  13. @hitmanchris

    I love Zach Lavine and wouldn't mind him if the deal is right. In the playoff you need a guy who is going to get you buckets. JoJo is going to be beat up come playoffs because of the toll from the season. And in a game 4 just like previous years he is going to need help. Love Maxey but come Boston and MIL he is going to need help and more help than Melton, Tobi, Nico or Kelly O can give. And all Sixers fan and ball players know sooner or later it's damn can we get a bucket and go on a run. And Zach can play without the ball in his hands you seen that when Lonzo was running PG for the Bulls. He's ball dominate because he has to be.

  15. @hitmanchris

    Hey real quick ANYBODY just answer this question..With all this money they are saving for free agency who are they getting that can play next to JoJo and Maxey that can do all these things Zach can't..While the free agent list has names they are all older and with big injury history too..Paul G, Kawhi ya'll want that. Paskal who can't really play with JoJo ya'll say don't want ball dominate players Paskal has the ball alot…Who are they waiting on thats Younger and Better..PLEASE give a name that they will get.

  16. @philw9787

    We dont need lavine to beat boston. Embid has get butt in post n dominate!! Would lavine make us championship contender yes!!!! Lets be real maxey struggle against boston period. Tobias scared shoot n embid numbers drop in playoffs. We dont need lavine in regular season. Come post season this fan base be screaming for a Lavine!! Lol

  17. @NesconProductions

    Clearly trading for Zach would be sort of a desperation move the team doesn't need now (or in the future). For the time being hope team can carry double-digit leads into 4th. quarters to keep Embiid's minutes down & see what the current supporting cast can do. Wouldn't mind seeing Mo Bamba get some more minutes, the one other true center they have & see good things in his game. Kelly Oubre Jr. may be the piece the team needs (& already has..), he just has to stay out of the lane (on Broad St. 🚲😁). Nick is still trying to figure out what he's got and seems to have been doing a good job with the cards he's been dealt.

  19. @romelsligh2788

    Sixers fans you guys want Tobias Harris to do the things that Zach Lavine does on the offense but you don’t want Lavine. Harris doesn’t play good defense either. Sixers fans are tripping y’all are Hippocrates 😂😂

  21. @chimaebinama3192

    Simmons definitely needed the ball to be effective. He just didn't shoot when he had the ball. Look at him in Brooklyn without the ball, he's a role player or bench player.

  22. @chimaebinama3192

    I disagree that Lavine wouldn't be a good fit. A third guy that can get buckets especially if either Embiid or Maxey is having an off night is great. But I feel like there are overall better options that can provide what the Sixers need without losing so many assets or spending as much money

  24. @Fats620

    If the sixers going to swing for the fences I'd rather it be with Siakam. That way they'll always have 2 or 3 scorers on the floor. You can pair him with harris on the second unit when Maxey and embiid are off the floor. Plus it gives us another big to go against Gannis and Lopez and Horford and Prozingus

  25. @godfr012

    He would be the best 3rd option in the league, and allow you to play 2 hardened defenders. Even Springer without worrying about shooting, because Zach and Tyrese can get their shots without space, Joel to an extent can too

  26. @edwinparson2692

    No it's not, when When we need scoring in the playoffs and Tobias or anyone else can't score you need a Zack Lavine a 2 guard who can create his own shot and shot 3s . Plus he can run with Maxey and ombre.

  27. @mal32301

    Don’t need a broke down high priced Basketball player. He can’t play defense either
