A Philadelphia 76ers site wants to trade Al Horford to the Detroit Pistons for Blake Griffin. Getting Ben Simmons would be much better. Here is a reasonable proposal to make it happen.
A veteran multi-talented big man a year away from averaging 24.5 points a game is going to a valuable commodity if put on the trade market. That means you will hear the name Blake Griffin. The Detroit Pistons can expect to get all kinds of offers for him.
Now, Pistons management had not said a word about wanting to get rid of Griffin.
