Many NBA fans speculated that the Philadelphia 76ers Nerlens Noel will be hitting the free agency market this summer. According to NBA trade rumors, we might find Noel next to LeBron James playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the new NBA season.
Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are the super teams in the NBA season today. However, looking at the lineup, GSW has a better roster. It has a quartet of NBA superstars with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and the former OKC Thunder small forward Kevin Durant.
If in case, Cavaliers has to face the Golden State Warriors again in the next NBA championship, they have to fix the issues with the team to have a tighter grip on their next NBA title. King James Gospel suggested that Cleveland Cavaliers has a huge problem with their lineup because they lack big men.
Meanwhile, Philadelphia 76ers also has the same issue because they have two power forwards and three centers that are great starters. To compensate each team's weakness, they should have a trade involving Nerlens Noel.
Per Asia Starz, there are chances that Philadelphia 76ers will trade Nerlens Noel or Jhalil Okafor this summer to prevent frontcourt logjam. A Philadelphia-Cleveland trade is expected to benefit both teams.
Parent Herald previously reported that Cleveland Cavaliers need big men to work with LeBron James. If the team wants a back-to-back championship they have to improve their roster. Per the report, currently, Cavs has an undersized center with Tristan Thompson and an aging Chris Andersen as their big man.
Meanwhile, Nothin' But Nets suggested that if Philadelphia 76ers will let go of Nerlens Noel they would probably prefer it to be via trade so they can have another player back. However, if Noel hits the free agency, Brooklyn Nets should also consider him.
