They do have a stock pile of draft picks and could even part with Holmes if they really feel like Victor Olapido could regain his confidence and become the starting SG going forward…
Maybe an offer of Rachaun Holmes and the OKC pick for Victor Olapido helps move the dial, even though I love Holmes playing a Taj Gibson role going forward…
I’ve always thought VO had a lot of potential as a Slasher/Defender, Okafor could get him a lot of easy dunks on dump off passes, he is streaky enough to keep teams honest…
What do you guys think? Olapido to Philly for Holmes and OKC’s late 1st round pick, who says NO?
Philly and Orlando are both going to be in the Ben Simmons sweepstakes, I’m more interested in adding Brandon Ingram and holding on to the Laker’s pick for next year(more Josh Jackson ping pong balls)
VO and Ingram would be nice additions on the Wing along with Saric/Embiid down low plus whoever else we add with our other 1st Round pick via Miami and our MAX CAP SPACE (Colangelo wants to make a splash in Free Agency)
Winning the #1 or 2 pick will really kick the 76ers rebuild into full gear and they’ll likely be in the playoff hunt in a year…

Its like every year now the main thing 76er fans care and talk about is the number one or two pick in the draft. Being losers have become part of the culture, this franchise is pathetic. Majority of the 76er posts have become if we get the pick related. How many top picks do you guys need until they resemble a NBA team ?

  talk about??? If my home town team burned the Franchise to the ground like Phila did w/ that Bynum trade in 2012….. & then went on a Multi – year Tankathon….. I would be devastated…… but I would not suddenly adopt a New favorite team either…..
  I know the "who will the Sixers pick in the Draft" posts can be redundant & even grind the nerves…… But I give the Sixers fans credit for their loyalty….. Which I realize can not be easy

I heard theres a 12 year old from Jamaica got some mad skills they got their eye on so if they get the #1 pick in 2023 i think that could be the break they need to turn this franchise around

Oladipo’s stock isn’t the highest right now but your offer is Holmes and OKC’s 1st round pick which is currently 28th. That doesn’t seem like enough to convince Orlando to move him.

I was just talking about this with my uncle the other day. I would trade Okafor straight up for Oladipo and Hezonja. Problem with that is Okafor is a repeat of what they have in Vuc. I’m not willing to give up Noel, what he does on the defensive end is special. It would be the main reason I trade for Oladipo. But I think it would take one of the Sixers bigs to get a deal done.

Well considering Oladipo is an actual good player who should be playing in the NBA, yes, Philly has about 4 of those.
