re: Mavs trade for Christian Wood

He never been on a team who was even competitive.

HOU 2 seasons after harden left - worst team in the league
DET - worse team in the league

Never really played anywhere beside that.

We know it wasn’t his fault the teams were so bad they were both in rebuild mode that has to be tough on a guy.

He is still efficient, but I feel he bogs down an offense. He gets his points at the expense of the team. Selfish player, basically.

Dallas needs another guy who can get his own points. They just got one at a position of need cause he plays center and can also grab you 11 rpg. Not like Spencer and Jalen are diming up teammates.

I feel like there is some potential there defensively. Sadly, he seems like the kind of guy who might just have to be motivated to try on defense.

I’ll bring up Wiggins again. That dude had the skills to be good defensively, but he wasn’t with the Wolves. Now he is with Golden State. Wood has the talent, just needs the effort.
