I said it before. I just don't get the logic behind starting Powell. Mavs know he is not a starter level center. That is a fact. So why sticking to it. Put Holmes in the role, give him minutes and at minimum try to pump his value. Even if he is not a long term solution, it will be easier to move him at TDL or in the summer. If Holmes suck, his value will not be lower as it is. Can't get lower
Mavs with Powell as a best center are not a contender. If you are not a contender, it is about small steps toward becoming one. One of them is described above.
