Plumlee makes less. He makes a starting player's salary. He can be moved. Besides, he knows his role and isn't out there complaining about touches.
And they aren't sweating a mid 2nd.
Keeping Dwight would keep them in purgatory. They need to bottom out and tank to get better.
With three years remaining on his contract, I don't see it unless you include 1st round pick. Miles is not an even a competent backup center. 31st pick is certainly not a mid second round pick. Hawks didn't get salary relief or an additional minor asset. Hornets clearly won this trade.
