Sure, from Mavs perspective. But I think Charlotte has zero motivation to give up assets in this deal. They are not a FA destination and have big cap space as it is, even with Hayward on the roster. They can just let PJ walk, if they don't wan't to pay him. Why trade Hayward for THJ, whose contracts is a year longer.
On the other hand of course Mavs wouldn't look at those contracts as positive ones and I totally agree these two guys are not the difference makers that would lift Mavs high enough. That is why I think the deal between these two teams is unlikely.
