76ers/Magic

Sixers get: #6, Gordon

Magic get: #3, Okafor

Obviously gordon has more value then okafor, but that's the difference from moving to #3 from #6. Magic have new gm amd would love to put his own stamp on a misguided team with a top 3 pick. Also okafor can supply inside scoring from the post, which orlando hasnone of. Biyombo can play d and vukovic is more of a " Mile Gminski" mid range scoring threat. Magic an have choice of Jackson, Ball, Tatum or Fox, 3 of the 4 will definitely be available. Sixers get a high energy forward in gordon and still get the needed shooter in Monk with pick #6.

The only thing I don't like about this deal is Gordon. Is he really an upgrade over saric? I just don't think so. His dunking would be nice but his shooting from three would kill our floor spacing. No I'd find another deal if I'm Philly.

Tre: Not looking at gordon as an upgrade or replacement for saric. Just a quality guy in the rotation. I think if we sign a guy like redick and bring monk and/ korkmaz along, gordon could fit in during certain lineups very nicely.

I don't really like Gordon going as don't think the Magic can afford to lose him and they would be trying to add a sf to complement him and I don't like his fit with the Sixers. Okafor makes no sense his game is pretty similar to Vucevic and they have no need to have 3 starting caliber Centers they couldn't share the minutes with two so three would be even worse. Drafting Monk makes sense as his weaknesses will be hidden on the Sixers which gives him more chance to become a star instead of being the guy on another team which will be a ton of pressure for a guy who can get cold.
I think maybe a deal like this could be done but you'd have to include another team who can offer pieces that fit each team.

Embiid can also stretch the floor if needed.
