If Philly comes knocking on our door, asking for Avery Bradley, what would you "reasonably" ask for in a trade?
First of all, Bradley is going to be up for a new contract, and with how the market is trending, he's going to become costly. Evan Turner got paid last summer, earning 16 - 17 million per year. I can see Bradley exceeding that, since he's an All-NBA defender and a mid teens scorer.
I don't think it is wise to pay 20 million for him.
So if Philly wants him, I'd be open to hearing what they're willing to give up for him.
My only hesitation is, if Bradley is going to make them a better team, I don't necessarily find pleasure in that.

I'd accept Dario Saric heads up.
I'd take a later 1st round pick, like the LAL 2018 first or the Sacto 2019 first.
All of these seem somewhat like overpays for Philly but I love me some AB and wouldnt want to see us trade him for pennies on the dollar.

If we have to trade him, I'd rather trade him out of the conference so we don't have to deal with his D. I honestly don't expect to see any trades involving AB or IT until the brass sees how Fultz (presumably) fits in with them though.

I agree with if we trade him, trade him out of the conference so we don't have to face is defense 4 times a season and in the playoffs. I like AB and don't really want to trade him, but he does seem like the odd man out if we draft another guard.

I'd probably take Jahil and a future pick where the protection lessen over time. I'd maybe dangle Rozier as well and maybe try to pick up Saric too.
Or I'd maybe try to dangle like Avery, Rozier, future picks, and Yab for Simmons. I think you have to at least bring up the name Simmons.

I doubt they trade Simmons. He's their lone hope for a superstar (Embiid is a big question mark with his foot problem). Jahlil Okafor isn't likely to become one.

I like Jahil as a reclamation project. If people expect him to be some sort of Karl Anthony Towns they'll be really really disappointed. But I think he could become Kendrick Perkins

If we go after Okafor, I think it'll be to add size and scoring down in the post off the bench.

My heart will always belong to Perk

I wouldn't give much for Okafor. Apparently no one wants him, including the Sixers, so he could be a free agent as early as next summer if they don't pick up his option.
To me he is the anti-Perk: good offensive skills and limited D and rebounding. I don't see where he fits on the C's.

He fits next to Al Horford. I don't think Zizic will be better than him this year, but that's a good point about him being a free agent but I think Philly will pick up his option. He's gonna have to pick up his play to get a good contract

I really hope Zizic is the guy who can hold down the fort on the boards. I am so tired of being out-rebounded. Horford looked small and weak against the Cavs, and I just don't have confidence that Okafor would help there.

Probably to keep from being majorly disappointed, if we get Okafor, we should only expect him to give us some low post scoring off the bench. Anything more is a bonus.

Yup, Okafor is on pace to be a massive bust. Someone on a CB had a link to some sixers board and almost everyone on there would happily trade him for first rounder in the 25-30 range. Dude is a stiff.
