If we want to ditch Powell to sign Kai, why wouldn't other teams simply sign Kai for the min instead of taking on Powell?  Maybe Indiana to hook back up with Rick?

I've had the same thought. Kai Jones showed that he's an NBA-level player at least, so I think other Center needy teams would like to have him for the Min. My assumption is that he wants to be here. So, moving Powell makes sense if that's the case. Indy is the only obvious one with the Carlisle connection. Probably just wishful thinking on our part. It's not like I expect Powell to be moved, just that it'd be my preferred route.
