Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[KillerLeft]

Saw someone on reddit propose PJ, Gafford and Klay for Embid...plus two first round picks.  

I would not gamble on Embid health...especially with three years left on his contract.  It would clear out minutes though for Dallas.  There are probably easier ways to do this than taking Embid.

No question Philly would take that deal, especially with Brown's contract part of their reality now. Everyone probably knows by now that I'm into accumulating draft capital for the next few years by (almost) any means necessary, but under no circumstances would I want anything to do with that Embiid contract. I think it's the single worst anchor tied around a team's neck in the entire NBA, and I wouldn't do that deal for twice that many picks, especially because giving Philly a bridge to jettison that deal would almost certainly make it less likely for those picks to be any good.
