I don't think it's overstated because they have to shed some salary for Tucker.
I think its overstated because they don't have to get Tucker and they may be able to do more meaningful things with Green's deal, their pick and Thybulle. They were after Eric Gordon as well. If they found something that works for Korkmaz, Thybulle, and a pick that gives them good value they do it and try to get Tucker... but who says PJ even wants to go there? If Miami offers a similar deal why would he trade Miami for Philly?

Then what good was bringing Ainge in
He is supposed to fix this
It's not an overnight fix. This roster needs perimeter defense. The Conley money is going to be almost impossible to move this year. Next offseason he's gone and most likely so will be Bogey.
The Jazz will try to upgrade Royce but it's slim pickings.

I actually think Conley could be a better asset if moved in season. If he plays well it will wash away some of his playoff stink.

Tucker to PHI feels very real to me because of how much instant reporting was done it when Tucker opted out. It makes sense for PHI, makes sense for Tucker, and GMs love their own guys.

Clearly, he's indicating that the Jazz are going to trade Mitchell for a top-3 pick and two future 1sts, bringing back Paolo Banchero as their new franchise cornerstone.

Mitchell goes to Houston. Orlando is confident that the Thunder will take Chet at #2, so they trade back to #3 for Jabari Smith and add a future 1st.

Then the Jazz send Gobert to Sacramento for #4, take Jaden Ivey and say, "F all y'all."

Tucker was always going to opt out though. When the stuff comes out who benefits from leaking it? Tucker's camp may have said "Morey will give us 3/30M" in order for Miami to tack and extra year on his deal. It really doesn't benefit Philly to have that come out. Morey has been shopping his pick and thybulle to everyone but that just his MO.

I'm sure they have interest... I'm also sure they have other interests that directly compete against the Tucker interest and they are pursuing those routes as well.
