That, or the Lakers will just be better this year. They probably would have won at least 30 games last year but they tanked the last two months to keep their pick this year.
Love this trade for the Sixers. They now have their core stars in Fultz and Simmons to build with. If Embiid can stay healthy, that's a superteam. Even if not, with a few breaks and hitting on a late lottery pick or two over the next two seasons, this is a contender in the East by 2020.
EDIT: Not to mention this team will just be flat out fun to watch. Brown loves to run, and Simmons and Fultz will be unstoppable in transition.
