Philadelphia 76ers Receive: F Jimmy Butler, G Duncan Robinson
Miami Heat Receive: G James Harden
This is the type of trade proposal that’s likely to inspire a refrain across the internet:
“This isn’t 2K, you know!”. Fair enough. Admittedly, this one is far-fetched.
Still, both sides could see a benefit here. The Heat would be shedding a regrettable contract in Robinson while acquiring a player who has the potential to be just as productive as Butler in Harden.
Meanwhile, the last time Butler played in Philly, the divorce was acrimonious. On the other hand, that seemed to have more to do with his inability to mesh with Ben Simmons than anything else.
