That's it. So this is my answer to every "Would you trade Wiggins for".


If Lavine were on another team would you consider a Wig for Lavine trade?


I believe Cool is firmly on the Wiggins train. That means no.

Am I that transparent? LOL

I didn't expect that he would add Zach to his list which is why I asked if he'd consider it. I don't know if I'd do it, but I certainly wouldn't hang up if another GM made the offer. They're both freak athletes but given his length I give Wig the edge there, I'd also say Wig has the edge in BBIQ at the moment, but Zach is no doubt in the lead in KG's all important Dog element, and like he said, you cannot teach Dog, you either are or you aren't. Right now I lean slightly towards Zach in terms of which player will have the better career, but am very happy not to need to make a choice between them!

Speaking of dogs...Wiggins got one this last offseason maybe we haven't quite seen all of it's mentoring effect yet.

I wouldn't trade Wiggins for Love. Flip made a heck of a deal getting Wiggins for Love. It's a rare deal where a team trades a superstar player and the trade works out for both teams.

I used to think Love would be a great fit next to Towns, but Towns' regressions on defense this year has me against the idea of the pairing any more. Also when you factor in that Wiggins is this good at just 21 there aren't a lot of players I would trade him for.

I value Towns and LaVine (always have) at a higher value than Wiggins, but Wiggins still holds a range of top 20ish player trade value in my opinion.

I don't see Love in that category right now, nor going forward. I would say no. The Cavs would say the same considering their current position.

Add these to the list for me:
Gobert, Drummond, PG, Cousins, Butler, Harden, Griffin, Wall and Green.

These are fair lists but basically these lists show the value of Wiggins. The guys people would be willing to swap for Wiggins are basically untouchable guys. Those teams aren't trading those guys just like the Wolves aren't going to be trading Wiggins.

Love is a top-20 player. Let's not be silly.

My list would be longer and less "untouchable."
