Ben Simmons

A flurry of reports on Monday morning all pointed in the direction of a Ben Simmons-James Harden trade not being close. The trade deadline is this Thursday at 3 PM.

While all eyes will be on the Philadelphia 76ers surrounding the Ben Simmons situation, there are also moves the team could make to improve along the edges of the roster at the trade deadline.

Shams Charania’s latest report is a bombshell. The Brooklyn Nets are reportedly open to trading superstar James Harden to the Sixers before the trade deadline.

Tyrese Maxey has been on a tear for the Sixers over the past couple weeks. Outside of Embiid’s MVP play on a nightly basis, Maxey’s performance has been the team’s biggest bright spot this season.

According to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski, the Sacramento Kings have ended their pursuit of making a Ben Simmons trade with the Sixers.

With the trade deadline looming just over two weeks away, a huge question weighs over the Philadelphia 76ers’ front office: Pull the trigger on a Simmons deal now or wait until the offseason and go after James Harden.

Should the loss to the Clippers be a sign of concern?

Daryl Morey did an interview with Mike Missanelli on 97.5 The Fanatic. He spoke about the plethora of different trade options for the Sixers leading into the deadline.

According to a report from Keith Pompey, the Sixers have made Matisse Thybulle “close to being untouchable” in trade talks. Should the team make him available as part of a Simmons trade package?
