I definitely think there is a downside to adding Love.  The defense is going to be very meh.

Do they NEED another star now?  No, certainly not technically.  But I just would have a hard time passing up a guaranteed very good player for the potential of Wiggins.  (I'm assuming we're talking something like Wiggins/Bennett for Love).  It definitely does cost them flexibility, but you have less (not no, but less) of a need for flexibility when you add another player like Love.

I'm also not sure Wiggins duplicates the skills of Lebron a lot mroe than Love; yes they play the same position.  But I don't think Wiggins is anywhere close to being a #1 option for a team.  The plus side is you hope within a year or two he can take on the tough defensive assignments.  Obviously Love isn't going to do that.

The biggesu issue is the flexibility/cap space.  Irving/Love/Lebron are going to take up a ton of cap space.  is Gilbert willing to go into the tax?
