I PREFER (IN ORDER)...
IDEA 1. Easiest answer that fills my MINIMUM wish is find a cap space or tpe team (whoever that is) and offer Omax and hope some team might give a pick for the opportunity.
IDEA 2. Send player with cash strapped to his leg to cover the salary, an avenue allowing salaries to be waived. Mavs have 8M-ish allowable, which would more than cover full salaries of both OMax and Powell. In theory either or both offer potential minimum salary value to someone to keep, Powell as a backup C and OMax as a kid to develop. A good negotiator can do such a deal easily.
IDEA 3. If I can't negotiate a cash-only deal, I sweeten a "with cash" offer by adding a SRP swap to a team who takes both.
IDEA 4. I can't imagine it would take more than that. Such deals happen often.
I would not waive BW. I would also prefer to clear DP and sign Kai to replace him. DP is more try-hard guy w an "inspiring story" than oncourt value these days, and Mavs need to move on.
