That sounds like what KP wants in all honesty. The players that can play with KP, for him to be happy with his role, is really dwindling. That may be a good thing if we can get the specific player that works best, because we pretty much now know who that player is. Honestly, is Kleber that perfect guy?
Collins can shoot, too.
I think the value of Collins is that he can do Powell's thing while paired with Kleber (and sometimes with KP) as well as doing Kleber's thing when paired with KP, Powell or WCS, all of whom Kleber can obviously play, too.
The dream for me is to have KP/Kleber/Collins and either Powell or WCS in place when the dust clears. Front court makeover finished. It might not be possible, as Dan says, but the Mavs have an excess of valuable guards to offer, as well as the warm bodies of Johnson or either WCS or Powell. There might be a way, and if not, I think I'd find a different toy to buy.
NOTE: DFS is literally the only SF on the roster who's ready to play winning basketball now, so if he's outgoing that also creates a problem.
