I would rather keep wiseman, but there is the thought that centers aren't as valuable in today's NBA.
here's why taking a big is valuable:

when y'all go small ball, y'all wanna use Green at C? Fine. Not like y'all haven't done it. Moving up a Curry or Klay up a position? OK, whatever. That's small ball. There isn't a chance in hell that Golden State can get away with Wiggins at the 4 in small ball.

we are set on guards

we need WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wings that can play defense and shoot 3's reliably. Wiggins does neither
There arent wings like that arent Superstars breh

We have to take on a new identity we not going back to the KD Warriors

i dont see the point of adding Beal
how's that work positionally?

i say Bob should try and move up in the draft with those 2 late 2nd round picks we got.

Legitimate 3 guard lineup

Steph
Beal
Klay
Dray
Rebounding/Defensive C

D-Lo was a 1 that was forced to play the 2 with us while Beal a legitimate 2 guard and Klay is a big 2 that can slide to the 3

2 lotto picks in the 2021 draft + whatever y'all get at 8? AND y'all clear the worst contract in the league without giving any future assets?

i dont know if i would have klay guard the wing full-on after this ACL injury.

I think we are taking too much cap on the starting 5. We need to use some money and get a nice bench to work with. Our big 3 are in their 30s, and if we have a weak bench, we are just gonna burn them some more

Its more great PGs Klay will have to guard than SFs

As for the bench we still got the $17m trade exemption and 2nd rd picks to fill it out

You see it.

Clear Wiggins with a one year Randle rental as a small ball 5. He goes from primary on a trash team to a 3rd option/safety valve on offense that has to fall in line with the championship pedigree.

Replace Wiggins with at bare minimum another shooter in Knox on a rookie scale contract, he'll probably get his shot together in GS as most Knick youth get better once they leave.

Frank off the bench and off ball with Steph or on ball as a defensive tandem with Klay, focusing only on defense and less pressure likely looks better. Can cover up Steph on defense as needed.

#8 pick still nets a team like GS that doesn't even NEED the boost a talented young prospect, although not the big in Wiseman, obviously

Any future picks latched on along with the salary savings, put them in a better position for Giannis, or for more lottery picks while they're getting back to form.

1:1 it's not ideal, but given the team in question, there are some long term benefits :yeshrug:
