That’d be good value for Toronto, and I like Lowry as a vet presence and good fit with the Philly roster.Definitely would not do that if I was the Sixers. The Sixers have an opportunity to sign a top level free agent this offseason or next. They shouldn't waste that opportunity on a player like Lowry who would not make them a contender.

That is if Toronto has decided they can't go any farther with their crew and are going to blow it up.Not sure I see Toronto being ready to blow it up after their 59 win season. But can see Cleveland shopping the 8th pick for a star to add to Lebron. Of course, that's what they should have been doing at the deadline instead of trading for role players on bad contracts.That's an interesting idea, and people on the Twitter were joking after the "series" between the Cavs and the Raptors that Derozan should go to Cleveland, lol, so seeing that actually happen would be pretty funny, imo.My only question centers around as to who Toronto is possibly targeting, because if they're going to deal their franchise players, surely they would hope to get a potential star via the draft as a return, right? My gut says that Michael Porter Jr. guy, but I honestly have no idea .Shai Gilgeous-Alexander who is from Ontario. https://www.yahoo.com/amphtml/sports/report-toronto-raptors-trying-trade-top-10-pick-nba-draft-223454903.html

Yeah, as I said they should try free agency before making a move like that, but I could see something like that happening if Philly strikes out in free agency and Toronto likes who they took at 10. Would you not do that deal if they strike out in free agency? I like Lowry’s fit and vet presence in that lineup.
