This trade makes a ton of sense for the sixers. No lotto protection means a chance at a franchise player with the lakers near the top of the talkathon charts. Giving up a superfluous big and getting Clarkson is really secondary. Going for the homerun is quintessential sixer modus operandi.

Any truth or possibility of the Lakers involvement in a trade for Jahlil Okafor?

They have inquired in the last couple of days. I'll let you put two and two together as to what changed for the Lakers.


Uh oh, sounds like Magic lol. We better pray it's nothing more than Clarkson.

I asked around about Keith Smith and got a "yeah, he does this" from a couple of people, basically saying that he's prone to exaggeration about rumors for clicks. FWIW

Scroll down his timeline and Keith Smith says this tweet attributed to him was fake.
Elton Brand tweet is fake.
Seems this whole thread is bogus.

No, that was some made up guy, he didn't say that.

I kind of like this, we should lock more threads and continue to post in them.
