Trade Embiid or Simmons? Or stay the course.

The player to move is Embiid given the current teams make up, his injury history, and the inability to move Horford/Harris. No one will take their contract. Harris is a top 5 worst contract in the league.

Simmons/Harris/Horford/Shooter/Wing Scorer is competitive in the East.

Only teams that come to mind for Embiid are Knicks, Hawks, Bulls, and Hornets. Possibly Cavs. 

Embiid for Markenen/Otto Porter/1st

That actually works out in terms of cap space too. 

Philadelphia receives: Lauri Markanen, Otto Porter, 4th overall pick

Chicago receives: Joel Embiid 

Other potential trades that could work in terms of cap... 

A trade to Brooklyn...

Brooklyn receives: Joel Embiid 

Philadelphia receives: Spencer Dinwiddie, Caris LeVert, Jarrett Allen, Lance Thomas, 19th pick 

A trade to Golden State... 

Golden State receives: Joel Embiid 

Philadelphia receives: Andrew Wiggins, #2 overall pick, Minnesota 2021 1st round pick (top 3 protected) 

A trade to Atlanta... 

Atlanta receives: Joel Embiid

Philadelphia receives: Clint Capela, John Collins, DeAndre Hunter, #6 overall pick 

A trade to Miami...

Miami receives: Joel Embiid

Philadelphia receives: Andre Iguodala, Kelly Olynyk, Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, #20 pick

I think Embiid is being over -priced.. Individually dominate, but not a good defender, would take the ball out of other star players.. And he doesn't always play hard, with a health risk as well. 

But that won't stop someone from biting so who knows.. mabye..

Ummm...that's completely wrong. He is a game changer defensively.

Compare the trades of Chicago and Atlanta. Atlanta is giving up A LOT more.

The only way the trade could work in terms of cap is if Capela is in the deal and they'd also have to give up either DeAndre Hunter or Cam Reddish and Bruno Fernando. But I can't really see Philadelphia moving on from Embiid and taking back three bigs in return.
