Our weakest position is swingman. If we trade Wiggins, we lose even more swingman minutes.

With Taj, Dieng's money locked in, and maybe Bjelica back, PF is not what we need. Plus there is bad blood.

Please no.

Given Kevin Love's piss poor health lately, I don't know if it would be worth the risk.

MIN: Kevin Love, Tristan Thompson, and Kyle Korver
OUT: Andrew Wiggins, Gorgui Dieng, and Cole Aldrich

That would be as far as I would go, but even then, I would feel pretty uneasy.

I wouldn't do it I mean Love wanted out. Also the defense with KAT and Love would be so bad I don't even wanna imagine.

As a guy who thinks Tristan Thompson has the most punchable face in the NBA, I don't know what to feel if he comes to the Wolves.

There's no real benefit to trading a young, talented, athletic wing now. Wiggins' value improves with each year knocked off the mega-deal and he's still years from his prime. It's better to keep him and coach him up and hope for small improvements. In three years, he will be in his prime and be a good scorer - worst case scenario. You keep him and hope for the best.

I could see Love being a good fit in Utah or Denver.

Not hard at all for me.

I just don't see it unless we then have a backup deal sending Love somewhere else (e.g. Lakers for Ingram + other assets) or something similar.

Also, not to be that guy, but there's a trade thread already.

I'm on the trade Wiggins bandwagon and I say no!

I'd like to introduce you to a guy named Meyers Leonard at some point.

Good God, no.

Please, no.

Whatsmore, I wouldn´t even make a Dieng x Love trade.

If the Cavs would do a Love / Dieng trade I'd be all over it. Adds outside shooting and rebounding, still would look to bring in a defensive Center ( DeAndre Jordan) & a defensive 3 & D wing( Avery Bradley). It's not a very likely scenario however I'd love the team as a whole. My personal #1 offseason target is landing Jordan to play the 5 and move KAT to the 4 until he is ready for the defensive capabilities of a 5

I'm telling each and everyone of you pro-trade Wiggins guys that if the Wolves do, every commentator and blogger will be writing:

"Just imagine how much better the Timberwolves would be if they didn't give away Wiggins. I guess that's why they are the Timberwolves."

I mean is there anything more "Timberwolves" than trading away Wiggins so he can spend his prime with another team?
