John Collins...Our Third Star

[StepBackJay]

Just so I’m clear, are the people telling me that Dallas can’t possibly get UFA Powell from Portland, the same or different than the ones who said Denver would never “let” UFA Grant go because they invested that first round pick in him?

Not trying to be an ass (OK, maybe a little bit), but I honestly don’t recall who it was that said that every time Grant’s name came up.

Right so anything is possible, I just don't see it. For Grant, he wanted a bigger role in the offense which he could get in Detroit. For Powell he's not going to really get anything different in Dallas than he would get in Portland (money, role, etc.). So it would really be him just deciding he wants to play in Dallas instead of Portland. The only thing I guess I could say is if he thinks he will get more touches in Dallas than Portland given that Dallas doesn't have another guard outside of Luka in the starting lineup to compete with (assuming THJ is gone).
