Right, and if you're the mavs and you're trying to find that next piece to get you to the Finals and you think Wood is it then fricking yikes.

Not that I feel the trade warrants thats what they think. I just don't see the plus in this at all.

They desperately needed to not have Powell play anymore, at least in playoffs. One of their two biggest needs was a decent center who can rebound.

Wood is a massive upgrade, legit rebounder, oh and he can also knock down 3’s and get you 20 ppg. Luka will keep this dude fed and happy. A stretch big who can grab over 10 rpg is a dream fit for this team. And he can catch lobs on the roll.

If they can find a decent backup wing, this team will be competing for the 1 seed.

I’m not saying they are similar or will have the same impact, but people said the same when we traded for Tyson Chandler and re-signed Brendan Haywood (starting center that year) to a long term deal.

Once again in 2022, we came close to making a run with one primary guy and a cast of nobodies that stepped up and hit their shots.

I think for the moment I’ll give this Nike baw the benefit of the doubt.
