Well for starters, that isn't a remotely accurate descriptor of PJW, imo. Like, I'd NEVER describe him like that.
No 3.
Not the kind of D they need at the moment.
Not a wing (I already mentioned we see that position differently. Being me, I of course think I'm right).
I think FLAGG is PJW's "replacement." I have a really difficult time seeing it play out any other way, in fact. I think acquiring someone I actually considered to be a 3&D wing would be AMAZING, actually. This is why I was so enamored with Risacher's potential fit here. A more PERIMETER oriented forward who can mistaken for a guard if you squint. Quick, eager trigger off the the catch. Handles. Passing ability. PERIMETER, on ball defense (which we claim PJW has, but doesn't - he's at his best guarding forwards, just like Flagg). Anyone like that would be better in my mind, even if there was a semi-risky bet on potential involved. I'd be more than willing to take that risk, because AGAIN, I'm not sure the team will be good again while PJW is in his prime, anyway. So, is it really even a risk?
