Cavs/ Philly:

To CLE - Fultz, Saric, Okafor

To PHI - Irving, Osman

This one seems simple enough. Cavs add two great pieces for inevitable rebuild, Philly turns young assets into a Superstar with team control.

I think its solid value but basically guarantees Lebron's departure, in fact he'd probably want to be traded and since he has a no-trade clause the Cavs would be at his mercy.

I think it would be a wise move for 76ers to consolidate assets for a young superstar and at the same time tear apart the East's best team.

On one side I think that's the value you can get for Irving right now. The cavs won't get fair value simmilar to the bulls in the Butler trade.
On the other side I can't imagine the 76ers doing this. They suffered for 4 years now to get a contender in 2020/ 21. With this trade they get better now but in 4 years Irving will start to decline. The young players on the 76ers need these years to develop.
Finally I say they don't make a trade to get in the 2nd round of the playoffs instead of loosing in the first. It doesn't fit to their longterm plan.

I'd be reluctant to add Osman if I were the Cavs. If they're going to go into a rebuild they should offer Shumpert or Korver.

Also, Kyrie is 24 PS3. He is still improving. I don't see him declining for the next 6 years at the minimum. He probably has closer to 8.

Oh you're right. Thought he's 28. My mistake.

Sixers traded the third pick and a future top 5 pick (Lakers 18 or Sacramento 19) to move up and take Fultz numberv1 overall. I would not trade Fultz, Saric and possibly a future number 1 when Fultz could be better player then Irving who has also had several injuries already. Sixers need to trust the process and continue to point the needle upward with regards to there rebuild.
