    Default Sixers should offer Simmons & Okafor for Paul George in the 2017 offseason

    PG will only have one year left on his deal next offseason. The Pacers won't be serious title contenders for the next 2 seasons. The Sixers would become major players in the 2017 NBA free agent class. They could sign Westbrook and Griffin. Their pitch would be easy. Just have a simultaneous meeting with Westbrook & Griffin and tell them that they have a deal for PG on the table if they sign.

    Westbrook
    George
    Saric
    Griffin
    Embiid/Noel

    Bran will turn 33 years old during the 2017-2018 season so the East will be theirs for the taking.

    Not a dream scenario when you look at the circumstances. Simmons will probably win ROY this coming season. The Pacers will advance no further than the 2nd round of the playoffs. Simmons & Okafor would be a major haul for PG. Also selling Westbrook and Griffin to play with PG in the East won't be too difficult especially if Noel, Saric, and even Embiid(Dream Scenario he stays healthy) play well next season.

    No. Why would both teams try and degrees? One is competing for a title and the other is rebuilding. You're trading away the main prices in both scenarios. Management would be shot in both cases

    This trade is for next offseason 2017 not now. Next year PG will have 1 year left on his deal. The Sixers could just pitch Westbrook and Griffin on the idea of playing with each other and PG in the East. If Westbrook and Griffin agree to sign then do the trade(only after they agree to sign).

    You make the absolute dumbest threads possibly. I honestly think you're actively trying to look retarded.

    Make these unrealistic threads about the Lakers all you want, but don't include the Sixers in your shitfest.

    I made unrealistic absolute dumbest threads possible starting in May 2015 about Kevin Durant signing with the Warriors how did that work out?

    Westbrook, Griffin and George will sign with the Sixers anyway. No need to give up Simmons or Okafor.

    Exactly.
    And why trade our 2 greatest assets for 1 player who isn't a bona-fide superstar? If anything, if Indiana doesn't contend he goes to a team on the cusp of competing for the championship. Like a Boston or Portland, maybe even the Clippers. Not a team on an upwards trend in a rebuild.

    And don't pat yourself on the back OP for predicting Durant would go to GS. That was a popular season since the first match up of the 15-16 season
