but he's certainly a buy low candidate which is why teams are sniffing around him.

So why are we feeding into that? These teams think they can get KP for pennies on the dollar, and then reap the rewards when he's 100%. Why should the Mavs willingly help these other teams? Because he's been bad on defense? Because he's on a max contract? Because he's been averaging 20/8 on good shooting splits during a rough patch??

If we're trading KP because he's a bad contract, who are we angling for this summer to throw money at that's clearly better than KP, and that we are otherwise unable to throw money at? 

Further, we can ALWAYS sell low. If by this time next year KP is still a shell of himself, then yeah it'd be time to look elsewhere, and the Mavs can then accept a menial deal of whoever wants him. 

Just makes zero sense to throw him in any trade right now unless its for a multi-time all star guy like Beal or KAT.
