Makes me wonder if they knew they would do something like this and needed a body behind Powell and Maxi once KP was gone.
Listened to Bill Simmons 4 part podcast on the TDL recapping everything that happened. He got Rob Mahoney on to talk about the Mavs trade and he said that (and I'm paraphrasing), that a charity approached KP in September prior to this season starting to do one of those promotions where every time he gets a block he donates like $500 to some charity.
KP declined because he said he didn't think he'd be there all season. SO I don't think either party thought this was going to remain a long term thing.
