I get the defense angle and all, though. But based on what Ive witnessed these few Nets games...he doesnt even look elite there anymore.
Absolutely. That dude is an amazing athlete - far superior to Powell and is a little taller than him too. Look, he is in a toilet bowl - has been for 2 years. If he were to come in here and have fun with the guys and just be asked to catch lobs, run the break, and defend his ass off... he'd be good to go. Brooklyn is a mess and its not going to get better - even if their record improves. The Mavs culture has fun and everyone is smiling and cheering. Their leader (luka) shoulders the blame when they lose instead of throwing his teammates under the bus. It is totally different. Luka(23) and Simmons (26) would run this team for a LONG time and just fill in around the edges. Wood is 27 and would fit in with those two seamlessly. I don't know why I am getting invested in this - it isn't going to happen for what we have to offer. But I would TOTALLY offer it if it were on the table!
