The Sixers will be sending Thaddeus Young to Minnesota for a package that will include Anthony Bennett, according to the Philadelphia Daily News. It will be a three-team trade in the Kevin Love deal and it wouldn't become official until Aug. 23.

Get a true 4 and wiggins turns out to be a stud and they are good.

Woj reported otherwise. Feel bad for Thad, hope he ends up in a better situation next year.

I'd be pissed if I was a Philly fan. What are they supposed to cheer for?

Philly is just shameless when it comes to this tanking shite.

It pretty much guarantees their GM a job throughout the "rebuild" though.

Huh? Trading a vet with one year left on his deal and wants 10M a year for a 20 year old with upside. Seems like a no-brainer.

Don't feel bad for him. Lol. If he stays in Philly he will get about 12 a year. But he thinks he will be in Minny soon.

Yup. Young wasn't going to extend. Might as well try to get some value out of it.

If this deal with Minny don't get done. He will likely sign an extension for a ton of money. Philly wants to build their young team around him. They have told him that.

there has got to be some way that cleveland ends up regretting this trade, right? obviously, a championship would immediately deem the trade a success. if no championship comes and wiggins and bennett develop as they could, though, would it even be considered bad then?

seems like there is no way to call this a bad trade for cleveland, but i want something to happen to make that the case because it'd be hilarious.

Unless Wiggins and Bennett both become All-Stars this year, I don't see anyway how you can say this was a bad trade for Clev.
