Yep. If Wood is someone that only puts up numbers on a bad team what does it say about a player (Brunson) that puts up numbers on a good team?
When the news broke that Wood would be a bench player; it was always predictable to see this board shift from Wood will be an All-Star to - he must earn and do certain things for playing time etc.
Bottom line is I see Wood going one of two ways: He's good early and often so the Mavs trade him or he makes too much as a FA and moves on -- Or he doesn't buy into his role and his performance suffers, so he's traded or not retained in free agency.
