Jaylen Brown has emerged as one of the Top 5 two way wings in the NBA, and KP is now damaged goods on a max salary. The only way I see the Mavs getting out of the KP deal is if they take an equally bad contract, or just bribe a team to take him with 1st round picks the way that Philly did with Horford. I'm pretty sure the Mavs will just run it back with KP for another year because they're not going to want to do either (unless they think his knee is a Chandler Parsons microfracture timebomb waiting to explode).
You're catching heat for this take, but I want you to know that you're not the only one who sees the situation clearly. Maybe KP wows us all in the playoffs, but barring that, he has left an extremely "not worth his contract" taste in the mouths of most people, I'd bet.
