On one hand, I take your point about not over indexing Powell's one-off numbers given the rubber band effect. On the other, basically every team has started off hot against Carolina, and the eye test would have Powell as no worse than the 4th best player on the team (I would place him 2nd thus far). Not sure you can have him starting at the 4 every game, but the current starting lineup just isn't working and he's obviously the best non-starter.
Fair point, I think Powell is more interesting at the 3 - but that obviously changes things with the three guards too. Either way, I'm not entirely sold it's the rubber band effect, just trying to be cautious with jumping to conclusions. I agree though, think he might be the best overall player on the roster.
