    Morey-on has visions of grandeur. I think out of what teams are offering, CJ has the highest ceiling with that Sixers team., and Embiid's timeline & body history. I could see CJ plus a 1st. That's it. Right now Shams says Morey wanted CJ, 3 1st, and 3 draft swaps. BUNK! Granted rumors are just that, but the Kings seem unwilling to trade Fox & Haliburton. Spurs have a bunch of young players, with the top being Murray. He's a very inconsistent performer from game to game. A box of chocolates Gump would say. Minny has DeAngelo Russell. The volcano in Philly is building pressure by the day. The clock is ticking as the situation festers.

    Morey doesn't seem to be under any pressure, in fact he seems like he will take his time to either reconcile with Ben or look at more offers once teams get a bit more desperate.

    The season hasn't started yet. When does the local and perhaps national media turn on him? When do the fans turn on him? Simmons cant trade himself and the fans want him gone.

    We're hoping to top the Carmelo Anthony thread.

    Why would Morey care if those groups turn on him?

    That Moron offered up Simmons for CJ plus 3 + 3 is at least a starting point. Of course it is a ridiculous starting point and that price will come down, but it puts both Simmons and CJ in the same deal with no other players and fits cap wise.

    CJ + 1st + 2 swaps and I'm in.

    how credible is it that Morey is telling some guy on the internet what any offers were?

    most assuredly he didn't. But it gives us something slightly different to talk about

    Really? You can't visualize a guy crouching in Morey's closet wearing nothing but a halloween mask and carrying a machete and a CostCo sized jar of honey?

    No,no....me neither. Forget I mentioned it.

    Now, that I can believe. Although it still sounds phoney.

    Give them the 3 & 3. Nets and Bucks gave up all their picks. Clippers gave up all their picks. All 3 are going farther in playoffs than us. Get it done, Neil.

    Just wait for Ben to sit his ass and CJ put 27/5 and we do swap with no picks.
