Said it somewhere here before, but it's really the FO's fault. They got DFS, Maxi, Seth, etc to all take team friendly deals but for Powell, they chose to overpay him for an extension and never find a suitable big that was capable of starting over him all these years. Maxi was the real starter but he gets injured too easily so he didn't bang at the beginning of games. Powell hasn't really done anything bad himself if the overpay was just his agent doing his job. Of course he accepts the deal, who wouldn't? The FO fell for it for whatever reason cause every Mavs fan knew it was an extreme overpay at the time. Also the torn achilles made things a lot worse but he was still overpaid regardless.
