When KP is on the floor he really needs to the 5 and set the pick for the PnR and the PnP. He's just a different guy when he's active in the play creation and not just camping out behind the 3 point line standing around waiting for a catch and shoot 3. KP either needs to be the only center with 4 smalls or play with Maxi, who is the only other big on our roster who can shoot 3s and create floor spacing. That's why I think KP and Collins could be a nice tandem, because Collins can catch and shoot 3s and has a nice back to the basket low post game which KP really hasn't developed.
Powell and WCs, as 1 dimensional rim runners who can't shoot 3s, are poor fits with KP on the floor. KP really didn't blossom last year until Powell's injury. So with KP playing ~30 mp, that's going to leave 18 minutes to split between all other 5s. So there isn't going to be much playing time for the 2nd best rim running 5 on the team.
