Let me say first, I believe the quickest and most effective way to build a champion is to keep KP here.
Everyone is available on our roster, outside of luka, for the right price though. That is true for 99% of players in the league too.
I thought the press report a few weeks ago that the Mavs were one of the teams that were going to be aggressive with John Collins as an RFA was a message to Atlanta letting know they better be ready to match a max offer if they want to keep him. Sort of a hope this makes Atlanta move now rather when things get a little trickier for Dallas this offseason. With that being said, I don't believe Dallas called Atlanta offering KP in a package for Collins. Maybe ATL counter offered with KP. If you are Dallas, you have to listen. See how other teams view KP.
As far as Washington, If Dallas is making a call for Beal, you better be ready to discuss KP. Washington may not have any interest in KP, but if you are not bringing KP to the table, than it is a waste of a call.
I don't see Dallas calling Golden State on KP. Maybe Golden State would call Dallas. But unlike others, I do not see a match there for either team at this point.
Most likely KP will remain in Dallas and Dallas will do its best to make it work for at least another year and probably at least a few years. Although, sometimes you get an offer you can't refuse. I have trouble picturing that deal now.
