He's averaging nearly 21/9 on 47/36/85. 

I can name 6 teams right now that'd kill to have KP on their team. GSW/POR/NOP/PHX/CHA/BOS are just a few. All those teams are dying for consistent 3pt shooting and a stretch 4/5. 

And that's before bringing in the out of nowhere fits like WAS/ATL/SAS/IND/TOR

That's 11 teams right there, 6 of them that make a lot of sense too (GSW/POR/BOS/WAS/ATL/NOP).

However, I will end with what I always end with any KP trade discussion; it doesn't matter/waste of energy because the Mavs are not going to trade KP.

I agree with your first point. GSW in particular. People here are too emotional on KP, his value is much higher than people think it is.

I disagree with your second point because it's unclear. KP's body language, his fit on the court, injury concerns could definitely make the Mavs consider trading him. Rival executives seem to think he is "available." I for one hope Mavs do entertain trades. 

We don't know yet what's going to happen in the playoffs. If he gets injured then that is going to severely affect his trade value. If he has a good showing the playoffs which I full expect unless hampered by injury, then the Mavs have an opportunity to sell high on him honestly.
