Both AA and Delta do a decent amount of connecting traffic either at LGA or JFK, especially when you consider connections to international partners at JFK. AA also built a flagship lounge at JFK, so they must think the market is important. I would call it a hub. I guess my question is does their current strategy of not serving some key markets while maintaining a "hub" presence make a lot of sense.
