Somebody should make a Twitter Cash Counter.
New Tweet - minus 100k on next contract
New Tweet - minus 250k on next contract
I sure hope he has no agent that he has to pay a percentage for this mess.
Also encouraging to see that Odom, Mayo, Rondo and Wood could change under the strong guidance and counseling of the vaunted Mavs culture.
Makes me hopeful with regards to Irving´s future.

Am I missing something for these tweets to be getting a negative reaction here?

As his given name suggests, Christian believes in God and the words of Jesus in Luke 12:48. Crazy, no?

I just think most people are fed up with the Wood fiasco and talking about it in general. The fact he's randomly tweeting phrases about deserving stuff and how this is all planned for him is the cherry on top given that he has been relatively silent the entire season and only now when he's fallen out of favor he's turned to twitter.
It's kind of tiring. Wood isn't bad. He isn't good enough to be talked about this much though.

CWood is expressing himself in religious cliche's, sort of like Serena Williams thanking "Jehovah" whenever she won a match or an athlete crossing himself or pointing skyward after scoring. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it should not be viewed as a sign of emotional instability or lack of commitment.

Reminds me of the people who were genuinely mad at JET for his "Cut the Check" stuff.
If anyone after Dirk deserved an overpay for past play it was him

Gotta be aware of your situation. Wood has a reputation. Him posting all these kryptic messages is just going to cost him money. Mavs probably handled another situation poorly from the beginning and Wood appears to have been a fairly good citizen until the deadline, which you´d expect for a contract year.
At the end of the day though, he´s not getting the benefit of the doubt, even vs. a dysfunctional franchise as the Mavs. If he was a model citizen, you know his agent could sell it as "Mavs being Mavs, you know how they are run", but not with his track record. At this point I´m thinking he´s a two year MLE commitment by a contender looking for a bench scorer.

In all honesty this might be his most effective and lethal role, but I doubt Wood will ever commit to it. Especially because he's looking for 20+mil a year.

If any of your employees actually did end up getting 20+mil a year, can I come work for you real quick?

He´s already been to Detroit and Houston. The Magic have no need. The Spurs have no organisational interest. The only two teams that could have interest and capspace are Chicago and Charlotte. If he´s not getting paid over the MLE by either franchise, he´s not getting more than MLE money on the free agent market. Very simple. Vucevic for Wood seems a pretty natural trade between two desperate franchises, unless Charlotte throws a bigger number at either guy. Maybe the Spurs have an interest in Vucevic, but other than that, I don´t seem much for him either.

I'm not sure what this says about Wood, but I sure am sick of hearing about Ayton, I'll say that.
That's the next huge mistake just begging to be made by the Mavs. Ayton is the type who should be viewed as "minimum salary only" imho.

And now do the same for 3-point percentage and midrange.

The issue is less Wood at this point(who will rightly leave) than Powell, who sucks but can never lose his job as the coach whisperer.

powell has decent advanced stats to cover up his ass though. maxi will come back and help us a lot but powell will still get his minutes as long as kidd is the coach imho.

Seems to me that we have direct evidence of everyone on the Suns (besides KD) being a charmin soft, dogless, corny, crybaby choker.
