Why The Philadelphia 76ers Do The Deal
Here, the Sixers would be prioritizing fit over talent.
Generally, that’s not how General Manager Daryl Morey prefers to operate. He’d rather assemble the most talented team he can, and let them figure it out. In this case, he may be forced to make an exception.
Besides, it’s not like the Sixers aren’t getting talent back here. LaVine is one of the most gifted scorers in the NBA. He’s simply less ball-dominant than Harden – his ability to work off the ball should complement Embiid more cleanly.
Finally, Caruso is the type of low-maintenance, 3-and-D guard that any contender will need.

The Sixers shouldn’t rush to make this happen, but if their season continues to go this poorly, they shouldn’t take any option off the table.
Is this a good option for the Bulls?
