When you sign Jimmy without cap space, and the Raptors* are dead to Philly with or without Kawhi

That's a lot of money & years to give to Horford.

Horford to Sixers! Wow didn't see that coming and makes the Tobias contract look much less bad. It's a shame Simmons is terrible and a major net negative in the playoffs.

Can we all now laugh at all the seadood posts where he said the Knicks won the porzingis trade because they had “cap space”? He forgot they were the lol Knicks and couldn’t do anything with cap space.

I'm wondering if it was a good money decision for Horford. $109M over four years is $27.25M per year.

He opted out of $30.1M next year.

Was he really not going to get at least $78.9/3 if he signed a deal next year (average: $26.3M)?


I suppose Horford just wanted to lock up as much money as possible today.

No player on the Pacers is older than 27. What's the record for youngest team to start a season?

Tobias contract won't age well either imo. They're paying 4 years for a 2 year window which seems fine. Need to yolo when you can yolo

I would've preferred to just max out Butler + Harris and trade one of them in the summer if need be. Giving 4 years of near max money to a 33 year old Horford who had a down year is meh. 33-34 years old is the age where most NBA players fall off a cliff, yikes.

Horford may or may not be a great contract, but so far Philly's moves are better than maxing Butler.

horford could have an elite old man game, tho. guy already seems glacial and he's still elite on defense. doesnt need to jump to get his shot off.

Sixers were so good awful with Embiid out. This fixes that issue for the next few years and helps out big when Embiid misses 20 games due to being tired or hurt or has stomach issues.

Team is missing a closer but d is on lock. Need Richardson or zhaire, matisse, Scott to give them something. They also need a backup PG.

I'm not advocating giving him 4 years but yea if there's any big I'd expect to age well it would be horford

Market set it a deal at 4 years. Bet he left some money not taking it from sacto but 3 teams at least were willing to give him 4 years. Betting sixers were the second highest but best chance to do something in the playoffs.

Just need to MAX Simmons. Then flip him for Butler.

I think Horford ages as gracefully as Tim Duncan.

Would Philly take a first from Boston to work a Horford S&T that lets the Celtics have the full MLE, something the Nets weren't willing to do with Kyrie, apparently?

They'd have to lose a major piece or assets to sign a max, and my guess is they don't think it's worth if for the likes of a Horford or Tobias.

I love T.J. and he’s a great locker room guy but barely played in the playoffs and he’s bff with Embiid but the sixers need to guy who can actually play against elite squads.
