I guess actually even if it's reported LMA knew of this trade it is a bit odd. Giving up Batum seems like a step back in the present. Even if the money helps keep LMA and Matthews together it's still at the cost of a wing and the players you get back are a rotational player and a project player for the future.

This was my thought too. Batum for Henderson is essentially a wash if you factor in salary- 5m saved. Why throw in Vonleh? Why not just keep Hendrson and Bonleh and use the extra 5 on another quality rotation player?? Wtf Hornets
