Or does he ask them to break the bank, when he's too much of a loose cannon for that to be a realistic decision? If they can see it's not going to work out, are they willing and able to pull the trigger at the TDL (unlike with Nash, Brunson, ad nauseum)?
The Mavs need to decide now whether they’re willing to pay Wood $25 million per. If not, move him as soon as you can. He’s not returning anything of value as a TDL rental. Or, if you plan to keep him even for this year, I agree with you, offer him the max extension as soon as possible. Gotta think fast in the NBA or you’ll get left holding your dick, like the Mavs did with JB.
