ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

I agree with this.
But the coaching staff would have devised a plan to diminish this weakness had KP been outstanding in offense.
The drop coverage center would have been a non issue if KP was reliable on the other end.
Would have justified feeding him the ball if he can consistently punish the defender. 
But he couldn't do this.
I know comparing him to Dirk is unfair, but Dirk with a small on him or a slow big spells automatic points. With KP, you just have to hold your breath.
Wood's 6'11" frame is more mobile, more agile and his skill isn't less than KP. But I think Wood's advantage over KP is that he can score on his own, specially on smaller players, and when he isn't fed the ball for an ISO, his play can be based on cuts and PNRs which enables him to score with less usage.

I’m with you on this. I’m not sure defense would’ve ever been a non-issue with KP, but I absolutely agree that if he had been a fit on the other end they’d have had more incentive to try to make it work.

He was such an all around disappointment!
