This is a great trade for Philadelphia. They still have some valuable trade chips as well. Saric is a nice players, but thats a weak center peice for Minnesota. Covington is a good 3&D, but players like him grow on trees They dont lose Fultz and they dont lose the Heat pick. Plus they should be able to retain Butler in the offseason. Money talks

After watching them last season against Boston, they really need a dog like Butler. Butler will go along way towards them not getting bullied by Toronto or Boston in the playoffs

When does Zhaire Smith come back. He is a guy that should be able to contribute defensively when he is able. That will make up for losing Covington

I think it's a win for both teams. Saric is a 24 year old PF with a much higher ceiling than the 33 year old Taj Gibson.

So he is done for the NBA season, or calendar year?

I hear the Cowboys wanted to throw in a first rounder.

Nobody knows. The Sixers are always very vague.

Well Markelle Fultz has finally hit a 3, so we at least so if they say a year, its probably 6
