Take away the idea of trading KP for Lavine or Minny pick or whatever.
There are a long list of teams that would love trade for KP. They may not give up an asset of worth but they'll trade for him with expendable contracts. And then there may be some willing to give up some value for him, with the idea they can get more out of him. I'm not positive on that one but I'm constantly amazed to see how guys are valued. The fact that the Magic got a 1st for Aaron Gordon is the ultimate proof of that. I've been a huge proponent of getting AG on the cheap and him realizing his potential here... And that's an insane trade for how good of a player he is.
Again the frustration here on KP is that he's an overpaid 3rd option that's getting paid like he's an all star.
I honestly don't think anyone would even care about that if Mavs were an obvious contender despite that.
To win a title, you got to have multiple all stars or at least close to that. 2nd option= all star IMO.
