I feel like every move besides the Wiggins trade has been a head scratcher
Agreed. Flip's not trending upwards, in my opinion.

As far as I can remember I don't think we ever have. If we did we'd have a Wiggins/Parsons wing combo right now.
I would have put Lo Brown and Robbie as the lowest value guys on the team. Brown isn't playing even when we don't have a backup PG and while Robbie doesn't make many mistakes, I think GR3 was a better player to keep around. Like others have said, why keep GR3 on the team all year when we were in far more desperate of times earlier in the year just to cut him now for a depth big?

Understandable but he wasn't going to be a wolf next year anyways being a UFA

Isn't it obvious already that we won with the Young/KG trade?
Williams for Neal is looking solid for now too.
Payne is promising so we'll have to wait and see. The only thing that sucks is there's less trade flexibility.
