I think at this point, he kind of HAS to have that mentality as well since it's definitely going to happen. He doesn't want to go out there and look bad, especially after that ESPN interview, but I also get his point if that's really how he feels. Before LeBron came back, Wiggins would have to be a huge part of the Cavs team, but now he's completely overshadowed which he doesn't want. In Minnesota, he can play more of a role and thrive off the pressure of being one of their go-to guys.
If I were him, I would say the same thing at this point but I'd personally want to play with something like LeBron and go for championships with him since it's a once in a lifetime chance and he could grow a lot just from being around a veteran like LeBron.
I was one of those guys who didn't originally want to get rid of Wiggins since the Cavs need some defenders and I think he has the potential to be quite the player, but I guess you can't go wrong with Love since LeBron clearly wants to go for gold right away and Love can bring a lot to the offense. I just didn't want the Cavs to lose all of their young players overnight but Love is probably worth it. I still want Wiggins to turn into an all-star since he seems like a good kid and this circus had to have been rough on him.
I want Wiggins to be so good that the Cavs regret trading him, but I want Love to be incredible for the Cavs so we don't feel too bad. A win-win.
