I don’t think we’d have to add assets to the Hornets. I think THJ is a good player and fair value for Pj Washington. This would be a good deal for the Mavericks if it were available. I think it’s pretty good for the Cavaliers as well. I think THJ makes sense for the Hornets as well as the backup 2 and 3. He also brings some good veteran leadership. Good trade proposal.
If we could send THJ for PJ straight up, I would pull that trigger without hesitation. That is generally an indicator for me that its likely light on our side. Adding 2 seconds probably would not be enough. I don't see any way we get Allen without giving up both the unprotected first and one of the kids.
