Since cap clearing is the goal, DFS and Curry don't need to be in the trade to do what you're saying needs to be done.
My read is that Cap clearing is PRIMARILY the goal building aroind KAT. Once you plugged Towns into the equation Minnesota needs to rebuild the whole thing... Around KP and Wiggins.
THJ and KP is not nearly sufficient for an exchange of RoCo and KAT. I do not see any way around that, and the more time KP misses the wider the Gulf between the values grows.
