I'm sure this has been suggested by multiple people (in fact, I believe I've read multiple versions of the deal), and I probably would've been against this a month ago, but...
Powell is a near match for Richaun Holmes' deal. How badly does SAC want off of that 4 year deal? Powell isn't expiring, but he's useful as a backup to Sabonis, I'd think, and it does shave two years.
Am I crazy to wonder if a straight-up one for one deal might have legs? What if the pick is added? If it took the pick to get it done, are we into it?
I'm still not sure Holmes is an upgrade over Powell as a lob threat or defensively (he might be, but I'm not as sure as others) but that push shot game he has from the center of the floor would've been helpful against the GS zone. I'm pretty sure about that.
