But, you might see a load of possessions where he screens three times within one 10 second period to get Luka or Kyrie an easy attempt or an easy passing lane. And I bet that, just like last year, he’ll have a healthy +/- relative to the other bigs.
I am one of Christian Wood’s biggest fans here, but it sure seems like what Powell brings to the table carries more value than what he gets credit for around here.
I would much rather spend the MLE on Powell than on McGee.
Powell played less than 14 minutes a game in the playoffs when this team was paper thin on bigs. I'm not looking for eye popping stats, but 3 and 3 is not going to cut it.
Powell is obviously worth more than McGee and I would not have an issue paying the tax MLE for him. I just think 11 is a little steep.
