Rule #1 We shall not overpay for a center.
What Maxi gives us currently is great and the NBA rules really make being an effective inside big nearly impossible, but let´s not kid ourselves what our depth chart really looks like. Powell was one of six players to play 82 games, coming off a torn achilles in his 30s. That was crucial to manage the regular season. At the same time he´s largely unplayable in the play-offs due to his lack of offensive skills and rebounding. Maxi is a walking injury risk, especially when his minutes are expanded. Therefore adding two centers through free agency and the draft is a necessity.
Be opportunistic, but keep the asset base for the Robin trade.
