Why the Trade Benefits the Philadelphia 76ers

The Philadelphia 76ers had a bit of a big three when they had Jimmy Butler on the roster. They decided to let him go and sign Tobias Harris to a max contract. It did not take long for them to regret that decision. 

This trade would form another big three that could compete in the Eastern Conference. Paul George would be plugged in on the wing as another threat on both ends. He has plenty of experience playing with impact bigs during his time in Indiana.

The 76ers have a new head coach in Doc Rivers who knows how to handle different personalities within a team. That should be helpful in this particular case when considering Rivers coached George with the Clippers.

It’s clear the 76ers face a need for something to go their way. They went from being the worst team in the NBA to quickly rebuilding through the NBA Draft. The process has failed and this deal would help them head in a different direction.
