Sixers Trade: Buddy Hield Acquired by the Philadelphia 76ers, How Does This Help Philly?

Today we are talking about your Sixers so welcome into our lock on Sports special NBA trade deadline coverage locked on 76ers is the conversation right now with Kei pompe appreciate you stopping by they have been very very busy but we want to start with the first

And biggest trade of the day for the 76ers of course the news came down that they are acquiring buddy heeld from the Pacers for Marcus Morris for KH corbs and three second round picks so first things first you get a guy in buddy heill going to the 76ers who gives them

An average of about 12 points per game but more importantly gives them another one of those top-notch three-point Shooters and this is important Keith because although we all got the disappointing news that current MVP reigning MVP Jo embiid will be out for some time this is still a Sixers team

That’s in fifth place in the east and as you know the East can go up down and around just depending on what day it is so that being said what does this trade mean especially on the 76ers side you know I I think well the one thing for

The 76ers is is uh this will be their first like legitimate three-point shooter since they trade Seth Curry in in February 20 um 22 right so this is the first time that they have like a designated like knock down three-point shooter and what you said is it’s going

To help Tyrese Maxi out you know right now he’s struggling because guys are blitzing him and he can’t really maneuver now you have a guy who’s going to create space that’s going to open up things for Tobias Harris as well and you know the hope is when big fella Joel

Embiid comes back if he does come back this season you know you’ll have a guy who can be a a space Setter like something that they could run the offense like they did with Joel embiid and JJ reck so this is a big move for

Them um you know in the eyes of just getting a guy in there who could just open up the floor for them indeed and you kind of saw that need in some of the more recent losses like the ones to a team like the Golden State Warriors that

Has so much effective threo shooting how are you going to be able to really kind of compensate for that and be able to kind of match it move for move and even to that point P some of the teams that are at the top of the Eastern Conference

Like Boston Celtics another really good three-point shooting team now we also got word a little bit later today that the 76ers are trading danuel house and a 2024 second round pick via the Knicks to the Pistons what do you think that move is going to do for the 76ers as they

Continue to try to stay sort of in the top of the race for the Eastern Conference in the postseason you know it does two things primarily it gives them uh flexibility like you know they have like a trade exception now or or tax thing that they can do but it gives them

Flexibility and it also helps them regards to like freeing up some money so they can go and get somebody in the buyout market and it’s no secret that they want Kyle Lowry you know a guy who uh played won a championship with Nick nurse with the Toronto Raptors he’s from

Philly so the next thing that happen is uh one of the next things is that you know they’re gonna probably announce that hey we’re going to get Kyle Lowry and and as as a in the buyout market so that’s what that deal was all about indeed indeed well you the 76ers are one

Of the those teams is always in the mix at the top of the Eastern Conference these are the types of moves that keep you in the mix as well so we appreciate you for taking a minute with us Keith we know it’s a busy day for you as you’re
