Please leave constructive feedback or criticism and explanations on why a team may decline.

Hawks: This trade pairs up MPJ with Trae Young. I think this trade benefits both players as their styles compliment each other. Trae is a offensive threat that can create for himself and for others which is why I believe pairing him up with a catch and shoot player who is confident in their ability is a good idea. You guys probably know about the jokes that MPJ never passes or he takes contested shots, I think these can be overlooked with a player like Trae as the burden of shooting won't all be placed onto him. Sort of like how Curry and Klay play, in this case they would be the budget splash bros. I think this could give MPJ more points and be a better pairing than him and Jokic. This also helps the Hawk's defensive problems. MPJ is a solid defender and good at rebounding. Good replacement for De'Andre Hunter, Hawks would just have to find a new starting SG, possibly play Zacharie Risacher there.

Possible Lineup:

Starting 5: PG - Trae Young, SG - Zacharie Risacher, SF - Michael Porter Jr, PF - Jalen Johnson, C - Clint Capela

Bench: PG - Dyson Daniels, SG - Kobe Bufkin, SF - David Roddy, PF - Larry Nance Jr, C - Onyeka Okongwu

Nuggets - From what it looks like, the Nuggets seem to be interested in acquiring a teammate of Jokic from team serbia, Vasilije Micic according to multiple reports. As for the other trade assets, I wanted to bring Bogdan Bogdanovic to the Nuggets and brought in De'Andre Hunter for salary purposes. The main piece for them is MPJ so I'd say this is a solid return as they gain three quality players and end up with 6M less after this trade. As a result, Denver fills in the missing spots in their starting 5, add more shooting and gain depth in their bench along with more chemistry around Jokic. The bench upgrades with Westbrook leading the unit which is built around him adding shooters and spacing. All in all, I think this is a good trade where they get a good return for MPJ and hope for the best in De'Andre Hunter who can probably improve and become a better role player. The addition of Evan Fournier fits the team as he is similar to the new additions such as shooting.

Possible Lineup:

Starting 5: PG - Jamal Murray, SG - Bogdan Bogdanovic, SF - De'Andre Hunter, PF - Aaron Gordon, C - Nikola Jokic

Bench: PG - Russell Westbrook, SG - Vasilije Micic, SF - Evan Fournier, PF - Dario Saric, C - DeAndre Jordan

Hornets: The Hornets aren't picking up anything big here, but there's nothing wrong with taking a chance on younger players and making an attempt to develop them into something especially for a older player. They can always flip these players later on when they're at their peak. Aside from this, Zeke Nnaji's contract is useful in a potential trade down the line if they're planning on making a big move. I'm not completely aware of Vasilije Micic's game, not sure if he contributes a lot to the Hornets so that's why I sold him for these two players. If he contributes a lot, you could probably switch one of the rookies for Christian Braun.

Possible Lineup:

Starting 5: PG - Lamelo Ball, SG - Josh Green, SF - Brandon Miller, PF - Miles Bridges, C - Mark Williams

Bench: PG - Tre Mann, SG - Cody Martin, SF - Grant Williams, PF - Tidjane Salaun, C - Nick Richards

That's all, thanks for reading my trade proposal and please leave feedback or criticism that is constructive as I said earlier.
