Oh, absolutely that would be the plan. Collins is going to be making $25-$28mm next year. He would definitely be the starter. To get the most out of Maxi, there would need to be some overlap with Collins and Maxi's minutes, but I don't see the two of them starting. Full MLE to Holmes.

The WAS connection and the Collins piece, as @"DanSchwartzgan" states, almost certainly are then generated by the Mavs. The WAS piece feels like the Mavs getting something like this out:
"Teams are definitely interested in KP and would love him, but it doesn't feel like he is really available."
That is totally a message the Mavs want out circling in the public and among GMs.
Thanks for posting the retrospective.
I haven't seen this myself, but I recall reading a reference to KP liking or otherwise responding to a tweet about a trade to GS. It was taken down quickly. Have you seen that anywhere?
