KCP is a guy that should get some love.

Wizards get: Green

Mavs get: KCP

Nuggets get: TPE and pick 26

Problem is, the Nuggets want to do everything in their power to keep KCP. They're not trying to lose him. He's threatening (or will do it and giving them a heads up) of opting out of his current deal to sign for a more lucrative one. 

If he does that, it may put the Nuggets in such a cap bugaboo that they have no choice but to let him go. There are already a lot of strong rumors that Philly is going to throw a big contract at KCP.
