This is a tale as old as time. Happens in every sport. Most coaches don’t look at the overall production of a player. There are certain traits that are deal breakers for coaches.
Even if Wood overall is a better player than Powell, not knowing defensive assignments is one of those deal breaker traits.
No matter what you think about Wood, the logical conclusion is that Dirty Mark and the boys are idiots.
They traded a first for a guy they knew before hand wasn’t what they wanted. Then they had to give up additional assets to get Hardy.
