Greg Swartz of Bleacher Report recently wrote an article titled, “7 Trade Packages and Landing Spots for NBA’s Top Offseason Trade Targets“. There were some trades that made sense in that article, however, the hypothetical trade concerning the Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid that Swartz came up with didn’t seem reasonable.
In the article, he suggested that the Sixers should execute a sign-and-trade that would send Embiid to the New Orleans Pelicans for Brandon Ingram. Clearly, this wouldn’t be even close to being a fair trade for Embiid.
