Cmon KL. Drummond is by far and away a better player than Powell has ever been at any point in their respective careers.

Another reason is because we can essentially replace Powell with a player that is by far and away better than him and simultaneously get off a bad deal the Mavs put themselves in.
I think the only downfall would be losing Powell as a locker room/culture guy and adding a piece that has a potential to sour quickly if the fit isn't solid.
