Golden State probably shouldn't trade a talent like Wiggins who has been a Top 3 player on a Championship team less than 2 years ago for John Collins.
Seems like major incentive is needed for Golden State here.
I think people on this board are far too emotional and short-sighted when viewing players. Many GMs can look at Andrew Wiggins and say "We can make him right. He is going to be a Top 3-4 talent on our team and when he buys in he can win your team a series in the post-season."
Hell, I think Utah is a good fit for Wiggins. I doubt the Warriors have any interest in Collins though .
Taking the risk of one more year of salary seems like an awful lot of incentive when Wiggins has 2 seasons of being a good player and just missed half a season and this year has had by far his worst year. Both are damaged goods, so I'd be happy to make the switch to see if someone in a different context works - but not for incentive.
