I can't believe I'm going to admit to this, but a similar thought actually crossed my mind. Moving on from THJ and Maxi leaves the bench pretty thin. I started putting together a top 9/10. Starters were Ayton/Luka/Green/Bullock/Kyrie. That leaves Hardy, presumably a resigned Powell and.....
Pretty quick you get to the McGee/Morris/Bertans/Holiday types (maybe this is why Morris is so confident of his return). I don't see Wood starting (heck, I don't see him returning at all), but his ability to fill a pretty gaping hole did cross my mind. Of course, he'd have to accept the role I thought he was good for all along (bigger version of Lou Williams). There is definitely a hole to be filled if Maxi and THJ move on and Wood would probably be better than what you get with the TP MLE.
