If you make that trade, you could probably still resign THJ and get a center. If you operate under the cap, you can probably fit THJ and Holmes. If you operate over the cap you can trade JRich for somebody over the cap and still spend the MLE. There are a ton of guys you could go after in those slots. Theis would be a good option as a center.
You could also get creative trading for a center. Maybe Brunson+JRich+Burke for Turner or Adams. Then you resign THJ and get a point guard with the MLE (maybe Dragic).
