I know you like PJ. He's definitely talented. After the CHA games I've watched I'm left with the same feelings I had when I watched CWood on HOU. Great moments, overall empty calories.
I believed Wood could turn it around though (though I did say it was a long shot). Maybe I gotta watch more CHA games to see what you're seeing.
If it was THJ+Hardy for PJ straight up I could get on board.
Washington is 100x more established than Wood. It’s cool to wonder if he’d be as good here as I think, but not so cool to compare him to Christian Wood.
If I made the deal, I’d TRY to make Williams’ salary the bulk of it, not Hardaway, but of course would include Hardaway and/or Holmes if that’s what it took. For one thing, I think this year’s team is better if Williams is replaced and Hardaway left in that 6th man role. For another, I just can’t shake the feeling that the expiring THJ/Holmes could be used to greater effect over the summer or at the next deadline.
It could end up being a mistake including Hardy in a deal like this, but that’s a risk I’d take, too.
