[Mannix] Some of the early chatter on names to watch with Philadelphia: Zach LaVine and OG Anunoby. (alien.top)

LaVine is the kind of scorer/ball handler the Sixers could use. Anunoby is the versatile defender Philly needs against Boston/MIL in the playoffs.

So those are two of the names that the Sixers could use with their newfound assets going forward. While Lavine has a higher upside, OG does fit their team a lot better as a wing defender.

Feel like OG would be better than LaVine but OG isn't a "high level guard" sooo that's curious

They ain’t getting OG lol, plus they have to move off Tobias contract and picks to get Lavine. Idk if that’s a huge difference becuz Lavine don’t pass or defend besides scoring.

Called it

Neither solve their problems because they don’t have anyone to facilitate…

What assets do the sixers have for either guys?

Can’t out pay Toronto for OG.

Lavine got 4 years left on his deal, it’s gotta be a haul.

In hindsight, Ben Simmons, Drummond, Seth Curry, Noah Clowney(21st pick) and 2027 protected 1st turned into protected 2026 1st, 2028 1st, and a swap and two seconds...so far

Now that John Collins has finally been traded and Myles Turner just signed an extension OG Anunoby is putting the 1st team-Always In Trade Talks team on his back

Korkmaz overlooked again smh

[–] HatefulDan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Zach is a bad trade. He can’t stay healthy and embid ain’t far away from him in terms of availability. OG is better, but I don’t see how this helps them compete for that elusive ring

[–] Dymatizeee@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

OG is a good target but his asking price is inflated imo. The demand is like trading for KD

Sixers would be dumb to get Lavine. His skill set does does not fit with the team

Please no... Nurse went to Philly and destroyed us in the first game. If OG goes there too then Imma quit watching basketball :(

Every contending team will be in to OG. Not sure why Philly are in the box seat?
