Are you not allowed to trade your draft spot at the draft in the NBA?

The #Sixers can now have an extra unprotected 1st-round pick to offer to a team in a trade, like for example....the Spurs

I guess that explains it.

I get that. It's still (frank)ed up.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Ek is hearing that Simmonds is unlikely to be traded but that Montreal is in on him as are th Canucks.

Ek saying MTL interested in Simmonds; what do they have that would interest us? Could Simmonds, 14, 19 get us to #3? It is Bergevin...

Im in favor of moving Simmonds but I'm not sure that I'd do that for 3 tbh.

MTL really doesn't have much of anything I'm in love with in all honesty. Weber if they ate max money, but even the years suck on that deal.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda... Kane would have been great but thats a 2nd AND his big contract (if you wanted to retain him). Hoffman is incomparable to anything because that is the most bizarre locker room story

Another unprotected first to offer the Spurs for Leonard. Would be amazing

That Kane pick turns into a 1st if re-signed if I recall correctly.

Yeah, I really dk what else they have that i'd want in a Simmonds trade. I'm not crazy about giving all that up, but you get a choice of a great RHD, Zadina, and the Finn at #3, or even Brady. Is it tmrw yet

Don't care what Montreal has...why would Montreal want Simmonds at this time during their rebuild and why would Simmond want to go there?

Unless....they wanted to unload Price, but would the Flyers do that?

Up until the playoffs this year I didnt really follow the Sixers so help me understand why being able to trade a pick to the SPurs is a good thing?

Im guessing they have a possible target on that team?

Kawhi Leonard has requested a trade from the Spurs. He's a top 10 guy in the NBA no question. Problem is he's only under contract for 1 more year and has requested to be traded to either the Lakers or Clippers because he wants to be in LA.

Knowing everything we know about Kane I wanna see him play that way in a non contract year. Because he's a pretty mediocre player otherwise.

You do know Hartnell plays on no team right now, right?
- Glak18


Technically, right now Hartnell is still a member of the Nashville Predators.

After looking at the Sixers roster, and NBA rosters overall, I don't get why people associate weird/foreign names with hockey. I don't think that Ersan Ilyasova, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, and Furkan Korkmaz are common US names.

Youve obviously never been to the hood! They are common names In that community

Nobody plays for no team. It's the offseason and it isn't July 1st yet to sign with anyone.
- SuperSchennBros


Might be referring to the fact that Hartnell was a healthy scratch for most of the playoffs.
