Not if leaves with no titles...i disagree with the premise Bron gets off clean on that one...
You would have failed to win titles with (at the moment) a better player. I kinda look at it like this from a long term perspective: If LeBron (with 2 players better than Wiggins) can't win you a ring, Wiggins wasn't going to either.

If Love leaves now (highly doubt he will), then it looks bad on Cleveland's part, but the trade in of itself shouldn't be judged either way by whether Wiggins becomes a star or not. It's a foregone conclusion for many that he will.

If Wiggins becomes an all star NEXT season and the Cavs dont win it he should start getting heat for it...
This is how I feel. Dude runs Wiggins out of town before the ink on his contract dries. If he was that good of a GM he would've known they didn't need Love and Thompson and Wiggins would've been a better tandem.

If you werent going to win titles with or without Wiggins,wouldnt the better long term move then to keep him til after LeBron leaves/starts declining...Any GM makes that move will suffer the same scrutiny why shouldnt LeBron ? Like i been said they put there eggs in the 2 year basket,if that doesnt yield a ring,he deserves full criticism for a short sighted move...

That's not how it works breh, if WIggins becomes a superstar and the Cavs don't win a title it will be one of those "What if they kept Andrew" type of questions and will be pretty much pointed to as a cautionary tale.

Pretty sure he's just trolling at this point.

:sas2:
I'm not trolling. I'm asking a legitimate question. I personally would be pissed if the nikka that left my squad high and dry came back and traded a future star away, especially when LeBron only has a few good years left and Wiggins has at least 13 good ones in him. It's almost as if he came back just to break the organization down again. He's running the asylum, it better lead to some gold or I will be trolling if Wiggins becomes a star.

Again I say, if that trio couldn't do it. I can't see a scenario where Wiggins does it with less. At least there's a chance it could get done (hell, LeBron was 2 wins away from winning it WITHOUT Kyrie or Love). The Cavs are close. This is as close as they've ever been. I don't know if Wiggins would get you there. All the trade did was change the hope to expectation. Is that really a bad thing when you have the trio Cleveland has?

Now if Wiggins helps lead the Wolves to ANYTHING, then yeah it looks bad because if you could make it here you could make it anywhere
