You´re right. If the Sixers  truely declined that Indiana offer, they certainly must be insane. Brogdon + 1st would be very good for them IMO. I don´t think that is on the table and doubt that it ever has been.

Latest from Simmons camp via Chris Broussard is that Simmons will accept a trade to any of the teams in the NBA, just not playing in Philly. 

Brogdon has been consistently injury prone, missing games every year.  Simmons went from RoY to 3x NBA All star, an All NBA, All NBA Defensive and generally considered the 2nd or 1st best defensive player in the league.  He just turned 25. 
Brogdon is a good player, not really on the level of Ben Simmons except that Simmons just had an epic value playoff run and a down year in general (still an All Star). 

Morey's best play is let Simmons hold out as long as he must.  Its called honoring the contract. Four years is too long for Rich Paul and Klutch to play that game.  Ben Simmons will recover his value at some point and other NBA teams will be desperate for a difference maker, probably later this year. 

KP kind of similarly needs to play and recover his value before Dallas can really leverage him in trade talks but if he did manage to have a good run, the Mavs could get into talks for Simmons, especially 3-way near the TDL.
