An extension takeaway, though: if Nowell (or Gay) is a target for the if/when of a THJ trade, I think there’s a message mixed in about how the team views Hardy’s current state of readiness…or maybe even whether or not they’re looking at something involving Hardy outgoing, even.
I know it’s taboo to say it out loud but I wouldn’t be opposed to Hardy being dealt if it brought back a real difference maker. I don’t know who that player is, certainly neither of the Centers the Mavs have been linked to (Capela, Ayton).
OG, Siakam level guys - sure!
