So, you are the guy who wants to stick us with 31 year old, often injured, Gordon Hayward. BTW, I like that for you (Charlotte) as 25 year old, often injured, KP fits your (their) timeline better. But, your roster is essentially complete after the deal and I still have holes to fill.
So, what are you giving me for the age difference? Do I get McDaniel and the unprotected 23?
It is kind of an interesting thought exercise. To me, I think Gordon's timeline is why they deal youth (and one year of Rozier) for KP. In your mind, they want to trade their injury issue for ours.
I have zero interest in Hayward for KP. I liked the Bridges/Rozier/Washington idea like Dan.
Last year I was interested in Hayward because at the time it looked like you could send the Celtics expirings + some asset to make it worth their while and only have to pay Hayward some money. The deal would have been THJ + other filler. Not sure what the main asset would have been but I wish Mavs had explored it at least.
