All of those things that Fred does better than Powell should translate into wins or net rating, right? You said you only care about results, right?
Powell as a starter
Team record: 20-6. Win %: .770
Net rating: 4.8
FVV as a starter
Team record: 40-14. Win %: .740
Net rating: 5.1
It's basically a dead heat. Powell can easily replace FVV as a starter. And when Powell was starting, he was just getting better and better.... there is still upside there. Whereas we can see that Fred is pretty much over his head, or like you said, being used "improperly" when asked to do simple things that other shooting guards in the league can easily do (like finish at the rim).
We can let Fred walk and hopefully get back some assets (cap space & picks) in a S&T that could be used to swing deals in 2021. We can get a veteran PG on a 1-year contract along with TD, McCaw and Thomas, to share the backup at the PG/SG spot.
