Simmons, Covington and Bayless to the Clips for Tobias, Lou Williams and dirty Pat Beverley.
Would make them better right now at least. I realize they'd want a lot more for Simmons though.

I don't see this team making any type of final. Everybody is fine until they aren't. This 76er team isn't as good as the old OKC team with Harden, Durant and Sabo. And they only made the finals once. They were never ahead of the Raps and Celts. Milwaukee passed these guys up too. They don't value the ball and turn it over like crazy. The shooting got worse. JJ is cool but if he's the 3rd option basically. And I know people like Embiid and Simmons but I don't think they work well together.
And If Embiid is the leader of your team then you're going to be in trouble. I feel like he does things because they made him "the guy" by default and he can do whatever he wants. Not because he's earned the leadership spot.
They need to acquire a guy to put Embiid in a #2 role but I don't see how you acquire that without putting Simmons or Embiid up. Not sure what their cap situation is anymore or when exactly Simmons is up for extension so maybe they can sign someone but the clock is ticking.

Embiid is shooting too many 3s for my liking. He should be in the low block everytime but because no one except Covington can shoot they have no choice but to pick and pop with embiid.
The only bandaid answer would be to trade for Jimmy. But it would be stupid to do it right now if you have to give up too much.
The core is extremely young so they need time to develop, fast forward a few years from now and theres a chance that both Leonard and Kyrie are no longer in the east and Embiid/Fultz/Simmons are much better players than they are now

When I said in another thread BENAMIN (no j) is holding Embiid back, I was crucified.
Milwaukee is also better than the Sixers now.
The Sixers don't need an all star wing, they need a Khris Middleton type player. A guy who can get 15-20, create for himself, create for others, and is versatile defensively.

They should see what they can do to get Bradley Beal
