It doesn`t take someone having a Harvard degree to see that it would be a pretty stupid decision.

If at the time of the deal, the chances of your picks being anything other than more of the same, you contemplate adding the one elite player to your team.
The problem with the trade wasn't the initial vision but crapping out on the dice roll long after the fact.
all things considering, we wouldn't be much better off.
