The Philadelphia 76ers are trading C/F Johni Broome and a second-round pick to the Los Angeles Clippers for cash considerations, sources tell ESPN. The deal allows the 76ers to stay under both first and second aprons while signing LeBron James and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
@Maxey4MVP@Y0UNGTIGER@HoopsReference Embiid must’ve given SVG’s wife the most abominable backshots in the history of backshots cause to this day I can’t comprehend how someone who has never had anything to do with the sixers or Embiid can hate on him to such an extreme degree lol
@JoshReynolds24 Why is Windy so hurt that LeBron picked the sixers? He’s acting like he got cheated on lmao you’re a grown ass man acting like a bitter gf, embarrassing behavior.
@tjbey2000@decoeded@SMHighlights1@WindhorstESPN They gotta keep pushing their bs agendas. Only people who say Embiid is not the #1 option are the ones who’ve never watched the sixers play.
Bill Simmons thinks there’s a chance the Sixers could be the 2012 Lakers:
“I think this has the most variables every which way. There’s 2012 Lakers potential where this looks awesome on paper but you have LeBron who’s 41, god only knows when he’s going to break down. Embiid never plays. Jaylen Brown on a new team trying to fit his way. There’s an unhappy version of this too.”

Jayson Tatum shares a motivational message on being a leader:
“Being around somebody that feels like they know it all, I don’t wanna be around that person. I don’t wanna be the smartest person in the room, I want to learn from somebody else.”

@ChrisBernucca I’d attach a 2nd rounder to get rid of Broome if it meant having extra space to sign one more backup big. I don’t think Walker is going anywhere tho cause he’s a Klutch client.
BOMBSHELL 🚨: The 76ers Cannot Actually Sign LeBron James To A 2 Year Deal. Per, @BobbyMarks42
“If you sign a 1-year veteran deal, for cap tax purposes. $2.4 million counts against the cap, doesn’t matter if your 10 years of service, or 5 years of service… so when you do the math they’re hard capped at the first apron, that pushes them over the first apron by about 600,000.”
This Doesn’t Mean The Deal Cannot Be Done, But It Could Potentially Not Be A 2-Year Deal.
