But that's not enough to get in on the top class of free agents like Beal or LaVine, and most of the other options for wings/guards are guys like Simons, Bridges, or Sexton where their teams have RFA rights. I have a hard time seeing a path to a reasonable replacement for Harden through free agency on their budget.

Fair. Still doesn't make sense to tie up money in someone not wanting to be in good condition. And not just a one year affair either. This is a multi-year commitment. I'd walk and try and swing a trade, or rebuild. Their roster is good but not great, with guys like Harden and Embiid aging. Could get some amazing for Embiid, I'd think.
