I don't think it's harsh, I think it's pretty accurate.
Quantity always SEEMS good in a trade, at the time, but usually much of it turns out mediocre. It is almost always the case that the team that gets the best player wins the trade.
This is a great trade for MIN.
It's also a really good trade for VAN, all things considered. And maybe Buium turns into a star. But Hughes might be the best player VAN has ever had, and he's 26.
A for MIN, and B for VAN, IMO
