It’s 4 am and my thing went off.

I woke up in a cold sweat and grabbed my phone with the feeling that the Phillies signed Bryce Harper.

Not yet.

But my blogging thing never misses, and the Twitter machine reports the Sixers have traded for TOBIAS HARRIS.

The deal:

Sources: Clippers and Sixers have agreed to trade Tobias Harris, Boban Marjanovic, Mike Scott for Landry Shamet, Wilson Chandler, Mike Muscala, 2020 first-rounder, 2021 unprotected 1st via Miami and two second rounders.

The Sixers are budgeting to re-sign and keep a new Big 4, including free agents Tobias Harris and Jimmy Butler this summer, league sources tell ESPN. Philadelphia has long-term plans for Harris, Butler, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons together.

GOOD F-ING MORNING.

Harris is 6-9 and averaging 20 and 8 and shooting 42% from three in a contract year. To say he fits the Sixers perfectly would be an understatement. This is an ALL-IN, GO-WIN-THE-CHAMPIONSHIP type move and I am HERE for it

Actually, I’m in bed 4 it. Elton working the hotline DEEP into the night. Your move, Mr. Middleton.

We’ll have much more when the gang wakes up. They don’t have my blogger intuition.

Oh, and here’s a fun bonus:
