Powell, I believe, was injured earlier in the game. When healthy and when his mind's right, he's a very good offensive player--just a subtle one. The comparison I made the first time I saw him was Lamar Odom. Sadly, we seem to have gotten a lot of "bad, early Lamar Odom" so far in his career. Hopefully, like Lamar, he can straighten it out and be a highly effective yet subtle player.
