In this hypothetical it’s also unlikely that Holmes & Kleber would be the trade for Wiggins. GS doesn’t want a bad player (Holmes) and bad money (Kleber). Sure, they want to rid themselves of Wiggins (rightfully so), but I think it’s highly unlikely that they would do so, while keeping themselves in the same financial position this year and next.
As for Wiggins in general. He’s terrible. I won’t dive into all the stats because it’s not really necessary. He’s bad at basketball and will get paid 100M to play it.
It was a very specific trade and it was discussed. You can´t just change the trade details in your head and then argue it´s a sh*t trade. Besides it still not being a sh*t trade, if it is Holmes/Kleber for Wiggins. I don´t believe the Warriors would do the trade either. Why though is it a bad trade for us, if you think the Warriors would be the team to decline the deal.
If we win the trade, we are better off. Also they want to trade Wiggins, cause of their overall cap situation and future flexibility, not because the contract is that horrific by itself.
