Ugh, and Wiggins' trade value has only gone down since then.

That being said, I doubt Glen feels the same way anymore. May be there is a GM or two out there willing to part ways with a decent asset or two for Wiggins.

FIrst of all, consider the source. Has anything been linked from the wolves at this point?

What we should be asking is why did Thibs takeover a team that was considered the most talented young core in BB, only to try and trade away all of it other than KAT?

Wolfson is pretty damn reliable, as far as your young talented core trade question I would say Jimmy>Lavine and Kyrie>Wiggins all day. We had a chance to upgrade based on trading potential for proven talent, now that ship has likely sailed thanks to Glen

Not really sure on Doogie. I think he is more of a "clickbait" reporter. I don't trust Doogie. If John K comes out and says this I will believe it. But man we would of had a weird lineup this year. Irving/Teague/Butler/Gibson/Kat.

Also at the time I would say that the Celtics deal was better.

I agree with Kekgeek on Wolfson. He has zero inside contacts, and only gets info from outside sources with an agenda. zero credibility imo.

It should be Jimmy versus Laving, Dunn, and Markanen, and I haven't seen any credible story stating we could have gotten Irving for WIggins.

We should also factor in whether Kyrie would re-sign in Minny.

THey could also be a package deal for the lakers in two years as well.

I've been hearing about the Lakers poaching top players since we still had Love, when is it actually going to happen?
