Also when healthy LeVert can run a PnR somewhat efficiently. He’d be a solid fit alongside Hardy as the two bench guards. Allows Hardy to finish plays more than create them. 

I REALLY hope we’ll come out of the trade deadline with clearly defined roles for Green as the starting SF and Hardy as a regular rotation guy.

I think the Levert trade would have already happened if Clevland was willing to do it straight up, and now we don't have a second to tip with.  If we did end up with Levert I would prefer to turn him into Crowder or Covington if possible.  They will likely stagger Luka and Kyrie's minutes so one is on the floor at all times, making Leverts limited creation abilities less important, and they are in desperate need of big wing defense.

I'm not sure Hardy is ready for regular rotation minutes (especially on a team that is clearly going for it now) but the roster is getting thin and we may not have a choice.
