Yes because doing this trade is guarantied to get us Parker, hell we could just as easily get Wiggins Parker Embiid or Randle without having to give up Burks or Marv, who could be a very usefull role player when we finish the tank business at 3-5 million playing both sf and stretch 4 off the bench. I'd rather have Burks and one of those guys than one of those guys with no Burks and potentially no Hayward.

So instead of increasing the chance of landing a franchise changer by ~20% or so you'd rather keep a guy around to be a role player on a hypothetical contender 3-4 years down the road? I view Marvin as having nice window coverings on a house you're currently trying to build. We laid the foundation and started framing some of the walls. We realized we need a bit more space so we're laying more foundation. Now don't get me wrong, we want window coverings and we want them to be badass, but until then get your feet out of the gravel and GTFO of the way so the cement truck can get in.
