Sixers INTERESTED In Dorian Finney-Smith! | Paul Reed TRADE Incoming? | Bring Back Ben Simmons?
so the Sixers made their Splash move they got their guy in Paul George but there is still one underlying issue matter of fact I think it is a huge concern this team has no power forward who is going to play power forward for this squad we talked yesterday in terms of the cat room that they have right now $9.2 million left do they try to facilitate a trade do they sign somebody well today a new target has emerged we’ll talk about if the fit makes in Philadelphia we have a couple other cryptic tweets to get to and matter of fact one of the free agents remaining on the market had his brother reply to me on Twitter you don’t want to miss it all as well as a crazy scenario from sixer fans but welcome on into Philly take with RB I’m RB do me a favor hit the like button if you enjoy these videos subscribe to the channel we keep you covered every single day and I want to start off with an actually hilarious story because rot shelburn put this out on Twitter earlier today pretty good article about how the Paul George situation went down and as you know we were absolutely psychotic staying up till 4 in the morning but now we know why because Josh Harris apparently had his flight delayed by two hours and he brought Dr J with them to try to seal the deal and PG said no we’re going to wait for Dr J and Josh Harris to get here so Josh Harris I want to personally thank you for messing up my sleep schedule this week and shout out to you could you imagine if Josh Harris would have missed this meeting and PG said nah I’m not doing it would have been absolutely crazy but now that the Sixers have Paul George their odds on FanDuel Sportsbook as well as all the other ones have them at number three next year to win the title the Celtics at number one plus 300 nuggets plus 750 and the Sixers at plus 850 Third best odds in the entire NBA we’re heing analyst today call the Sixers the best Trio they have the best shot to go out there and win they have a big three what do you guys think do you agree or disagree let me know your thoughts Down Below in the comments section but we need to get to a trade Target because there’s one player that has been brought up in previous mock trades a guy we’ve talked about and now his team is going into fire sale mode and the Sixers need to go out and get him I think it’d be a great fit and he goes by the name of Dorian finny Smith we talked about him a lot especially in Mel Bridges mock trades Bridges went to the Knicks but per Mike a of Hoops hype the Sixers are loading up and are showing interest in Dorian finny Smith quote the Sixers have exploratory interest in trading for Nets forward Dorian finny Smith League sources told Hoops hyp but nothing is considered imminent there so there’s been discussions there’s been talks you know maybe they’re not able to get this done when you look financially I think finny Smith is making around 14 million this last year of his deal but the Sixers right now only have 9.2 in caps spe so they they have to get really creative maybe it would involve a trade maybe it would involve renouncing some of the rights that they currently hold maybe it would have to be you know inclusive with a guy like Ricky Council for example they would have to get creative to facilitate this maybe even a three team trade so it would uh it would get a little interesting but do we want Dorian Finn Smith because like I just said at the beginning the Sixers have no power forward and rebounding has been one of their biggest issues the last couple years maybe even the biggest one and it is still an immense problem they have no power forward so now that they have their roster pretty much set for the most part who’s going to rebound for this team who’s going to help joelan beid I’ve said multiple times this past year if they just had an Aaron Gordon type I’m not saying Aaron Gordon but a type like that who can just come in do the dirty work and help take the pressure off Joel embiid’s shoulders I think it would be very beneficial for them does Dorian finy Smith make sense though right he’s a power forward or at least listed as one could also play the three brings a lot of defensive versatility this past year he shot 34.8% from three and he averaged 8.5 points per game for the Brooklyn Nets he played a bunch of years in Dallas played the last two in Brooklyn where they have stunk the average is around five rebounds per game 1.6 assists so again really just a catch and shoot guy the goal as well is to surround guys like you know Joel and B Tyrese Maxi now Paul George with a bunch of shooting as well right pretty much in bid needs a team of shooters around him Dorian finy Smith could be a two-way guy come in help defend the perimeter just bring some catch and shoot ability uh and and hopefully provide some rebounding as well I still don’t think it entirely solves the rebounding issue they need a dog man and when I was looking at some of the free agents available like yes Dorian finy Smith would be a great ad but they still need another guy and I just don’t know who it’s going to be right now so what do you think about Dorian FY Smith if they could get him from the Brooklyn Nets there’s also another clet which we’ll talk about later in this video but I’m starting to think a trade may happen soon and here is why because Paul Reed put this tweet out a little earlier today he deleted it a couple minutes after but bball Paul shout out to my guy put this out God works in mysterious ways and then the post was deleted a few minutes later obviously sixer Nation caught on to it but what does this mean does this mean that Paul is about to get moved maybe they didn’t want to put it out yet and Paul’s agent told him yo take this down but it seems like from all indications all reports that the Sixers are either going to wave him or include him in a trade so maybe he got the news yet maybe didn’t I don’t know what’s going to happen but it seems like something is on the way and I put out a list on Twitter follow me over there at RB Philly take of the best remaining free agents at the power forward position and it’s roko Kyle Anderson toian Prince precious auua Dario sarich and Marcus Morris now none of these names are really alarming to me they don’t really move the needle but one of these guys aka the former sixer Marcus Morris had his twin brother reply to me shout out to Mark Keef Morris he said switch the list from top to bottom thank me later this was not in any particular order matter of fact I’m not a big fan of any of these guys for the Sixers but I would take Marcus moris back 100% bring him back home shoot bring both Morris Brothers why not Dario Sarge not really doing it pre is a maybe the reunion with Nick nurse right pretty good rebounder I think he averaged 6.5 rebounds per game last year roko gets hurt a lot Kyle Anderson would be a nice vet but can’t really shoot the ball as a wonky jump shot none of these guys move the needle so whether it’s one of these or Dorian finy Smith the Sixers are going to have to get creative and that’s really where we’re at that’s really where we’re at who could it be who’s a Hidden Gem out there that they can find and try to pay less than $10 million to give me your thoughts down in the comment section but we got a monitor they need a power forward now sixer fans actually proposed one insane scenario and I’m going to jump into that here in just a second but before we do that I got to give a shout out to our sponsor of today’s show and that is the great Mando deodorant right now new customers can go to shop.com and they can get $5 off of the Mando starter pack by using my code Philly Take 5 the link will be down in the description and the chat as well now I’ve been traveling a lot this summer but one problem is that I never know how much to pack I either pack too much or not enough but hygiene’s very important right and you need all your stuff and my problem has now been solved because Mando’s acidified cleansing bar 4in one has helped me simplified travel it does all the work of a shampoo face wash body wash and deodorant it’s like an all-in-one and it can even create a rich shaving lather which technically makes it 5 in1 but the 4 in1 bar is formulated with a gentle Alpha hydroxy acid that stops odor at the source if I’m being completely honest I don’t even know what the heck an alpha hydroxy acid is but I can tell you from experience it works my favorite the Mount Fuji I like the bourbon leather those are my two when it comes to all their products but everybody that I’ve referred to these products has come back to me personally said yo RB these have really changed my routine for the better so you got to check it out of course my favorite product the Mando deodorant Mount Fuji it will change your life it is both comfortable it lasts long and for somebody that has problems with sweating I finally found the product that helps me out and the best part is that it’s a whole body deodorant whether it’s that the cleansing bar these products are for your whole body so they do all the work for you and it’s safe to use anywhere on the body they’re clinically proven to control odor better than a shower with soap alone so right now again new customers can get $5 off of the Mando starter pack go down to the description click the link shop.com and use the code Philly take five to get $5 off of the Mando starter pack shout out to them for sponsoring this video all right let’s go back and talk about this wild scenario I almost lost my damn mind earlier I thought it was a joke I thought people were joking with me no they’re serious sixer fans want to trade for Dorian finy Smith and they want to sign Ben Simmons they want Ben Simmons to get bought out by the Brooklyn Nets and they want him to come back and be the power forward for this team to rebound and to pass cuz we don’t have enough passers and rebounders give me a break bro keep Ben Simmons as far away from this team as possible don’t even let him get near the facility all right I don’t have to go back in history and go down a rabbit hole and explain everything again the evidence is there go back watch the videos on the channel if you don’t know who Ben Simmons is if you do know who he is like like I even had people replying on this tweet saying real sixer fans would welcome him home no we don’t want him anywhere near not only is his time over with here in Philadelphia I don’t know how long he’s going to be in the NBA he can’t stay healthy he can’t stay on the floor and it just does not make any sense at all to bring him back the fans would go nuts like it it’s just not a good idea it’s not a good pairing the drama all of it Daryl M knows this keep him far away from the Philadelphia 76ers I can’t believe I have to explain that but apparently I do because six some sixer fans sixer fans want Ben Simmons back on his team Insanity anyway Joel embiid according to Ramona shelburn has shown no indication that his patience with the organization would waver in the future she talks about guys like Ben Simmons Jimmy Butler James Harden good to hear that Joel embiid still has trust somehow in this organization and it says he has been patient and shown no indication his that his patience would waver in the future but everyone involved understands that the window to win with him will not stay open forever and that is why whether you like Paul George or don’t this was the move that had to be made this is your best chance to LEAP into contention and try to get past the second round it had to happen darl M made the decision and here we are lastly one free agent that could be back Kyle Lowry and earlier today Phoenix Suns signed Monte Morris they’ve been in the market for a point guard everybody thought it would be Kyle Lowry but Kyle Larry pretty much wants to come back to Philly and this gives me confirmation that it’s going to happen just don’t know when maybe it’ll be the last move maybe he’ll get a minimum but the sun’s got their point guard so Kyle Lowry will likely be back with Philly do you like that move or not give me your thoughts on that and everything down below but with that being said man who’s going to play power forward for this team could a trade happen here in the next couple hours hopefully it doesn’t happen before I post this video either way if it does we will keep you updated so be sure to turn on those notifications and with that being said man be sure to like comment subscribe give me all your thoughts down below appreciate you all and I will catch you on the next next one peace [Music]

If youre chanting for ben simmons, u mind aswell not call your self a sixers fan. Yall are CRAZY
Shoutout markeef morris for the reply, lets being the morris twins and lowry home
Unfortunately, RoCo's knees are shot. Time for him to retire. Reed is an underrated choice for backup PF, but he should only play C in emergency situations. I'm not sure Finney-Smith would be better than Reed at PF, both are about the same height and weight, and are small for PF.
Batum leaving is going to hurt.
Paul George followed Caleb Martin 👀👀
No just. We should just sign the best available power forward and save Paul Reed until the trade deadline there maybe better quality players available that teams are trying to trade out. Option 2 trade Paul Reed but sign miles bridges. I don't want to hear from my fellow sixers fans oh he's only a good stats bad team player kelly oubre just proved that to be false. With nick nurses coaching he will be a massive PF upgrade. The man averaged 21 and 8 rebounds and has athleticism. And i don't care about his isolated incident off the court let's put that man on our contending team and see what he can do with maxey embiid and PG
You want Marcus morris but not Dario saric lmaoo
Dorian Finney-Smith would be a great addition for the 76ers
Gotta add Cam Thomas in that Finney-Smith package or you're missing out. Cam Johnson is a big sleeper steal right now since Brooklyn are rebuilding
Take Precious just to leave the Knicks even thinner at the 5.
We already have Power Forwards. Ricky Council, Adam Bona, and Paul Reed . Give them a chance until the Trade Deadline. Let's Go Sixers ❤️💙❤️💙
Dario Saric…shoots the 3 at 37%, 85% from the line 5.5 rebs 10 pts are his career avgs…he played for 2.5 mil last yr we can get him cheap and Marcus Morris, Seth Curry 43% career 3pt sniper..all of them have played with Joel or Tyrese or both…
Kevin Love off the bench.
Drummond is there.. uhh
They have a big 3 but the team isn’t complete so how can we say they’re #3 or #2?
76ers drafted they starting Pf and Sg 😂
I believe ricky council can be that dog and grab boards
Jae Crowder He can shoot. He's tough and he can rebound
Naz reid type also can shoot a 3…
Why bring back RoCo he hasn’t played since December, and is always hurt, unless the Sixers can bring him back on a vet minimum, because he does cause alot of havoc playing against the Celtics.
Finney smith is pf because somebody tried it. Cat was a ctr. Til he was tried at pf. Everything you mentioned about what type of pf you need (gritty,dirty work) you just described b-ball paul.
He’s pretty much Kelly Oubre….
No way their both healthy
Dude doesn't get many boards. I thought Philly was looking for someone to get rebounds
We need defense and rebounding
Can't trust Ben.
Bring M. Morris back, they shouldn't have traded him in the 1st place; and is DFSmith really a better rebounder than BBall Paul? DFSmith stats:
REB
4.7
BBallPaul Stats * (as a primary back up):
REB
6.0
Bring both Morris brothers back
Yo! The Hommie needs to come back, but I’ll take Marcus Morris as well.
Lowry and the Morris Twins, need some enforcers.
Ben Simmons might a pick up. “IF” the sixers add some stipulations to his contract. He’s not a power forward but can be a really nice backup point and small forward. Once again the only way I would do the trade with Simmons is if I had a clause in his contract.
😂
Go get Ben Simmons FOR REAL!!!!
