All in offers are to pair a guy like Zion with Ball, Cade, Embiid or Maxey, not trading them away to get Zion


I don't get it. So, hypothetically, the Sixers want to go all online with Zion. But they aren't giving up Maxey or Embiid. What else do they have to offer?

This is just one " non executive" saying this.

Personally, I've always believed zion would pull a crazy haul even with all his bullshite and injuries.

Do people really believe teams wouldn't throw some very nice assets at zion?

I take that every day depending on the projections. Miller is a nice young piece and they’ll still be bad so those picks will be nice.

I’m taking this with as grain of salt as it sounds like it’s coming from a non decision maker

It’s probably a friend of David Griffin trying to do Grift a solid and pretend like there is a market for a guy that ultimately is an invisible teammate and basically never plays basketball.

It sounds like the exec has about as much say as I do in any trade, but sure let’s pretend Z has valuable trade value

You are absolutely out of your mind if you think Cleveland would trade Garland for bumass Zion

If I were running the Pelicans Org. Zion would have a giant red bow tied on his head 30 seconds after I finished reading that thread.

Why would Charlotte do that? Maybe if they want to take a chance on Zion, but certainly not BI.

I really don’t see a world where Charlotte would give up Brandon Miller.
