i agree that Fultz has more value in a vacuum, but i dont know if they were banking on Porzingis (a stud still on a rookie deal) being available this summer.
it would be shocking if they didn't talk with Chicago/Indiana about #1 for Butler/George. so, i would guess the asking price w/ Fultz was too high or too risky (George).
maybe the best trade they thought they had was #1 for #3 + an extra likely high lottery pick. to me, that trade was a bet against Fultz and a bet on stars becoming available over the next couple of summers that could be had w/ extra ammo

That's a fair point.
ELI5 - I get the logic. Fultz is worth 90cents. We get back $1.00 in 2 50cent pieces that give you more flexibility.
It just looks dumb in hindsight.
