I have to be honest I am not a huge Powell fan. He seems like a guy you are thrilled to find and have him develop and give him a second contract at around 10 millionish and he continues to get better. He is not a guy I would be thrilled with at 20 million per year.
I think the Ball sweepstakes are too late to get into. I think there has been a lot of movement there. Some team is going to get him to sign an offer (at high dollars) and there is a good chance he New Orleans swallows hard and matches.
I still like my Derozan angle. Maybe a Holmes/Hardaway signing and maybe a way to find away to get Graham. Not sure if that will be possible, but it appears Charlotte won't fight too hard to keep him.
