The issue would be if Hornets management doesn't want to break up that connection which would be understandable.
I dont think anyone is suggesting that Bridges or Melo have the actual power to push the button/veto a trade...
I just dont see why Charlotte would do it.
Do they have a Center issue. Yes. Do they want a 30+M Unicorn Center with injury concerns while also breaking up what seems to be good chemistry amongst two of their young stars on cheap contracts?
If Im Charlotte...PJ and Miles are off limits. Rozier and some other guys not named Miles and PJ. Not because I am over inflating their talent...but because who else do they have in the front court if KP gets hurt....and because of the chemistry.
Maybe Im wrong...but trading both PJ and Miles for KP would disrupt that team quite a bit right(they talk about their chemistry)? They would then have to make another move to bring in other front court players that they would hope work out next to KP(when KP plays).
I get that they arent contenders and you have to make moves to come up...but two cheap starters for an expensive injury prone Unicorn while also disturbing team chemistry? Seems risky
