2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

Question is if Powells skills are as valuable or unique as Donnie, RC and Mark think. Is he any better than Brandan Wright was? The Mavs system needs pick and roll bigman and makes them look really good. Has been the same story for years. Starting with Chandler instead of Dampier/Haywood or Wright of the bench. Powell in recent years. Upgrading Powell only makes sense if the return can play a similar role on offense.

I agree but don't understand the point I guess. Brandan and Tyson aren't coming back. We're not getting Capella. We have our current version.

Maybe a different player with worse pick and roll numbers would look just as good or even better than Powell in the Mavs system. Ideally the guy is also a better defender or shooter.
Capela is playing in a similar system and takes advantage of it.
My point is that we simply don´t know how a player fits into our system without seeing it. With Luka as the ballhandler and the Mavs spacing a guy that did not look good on another team might look like peak Tyson on the Mavs.
