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

I can envision him being the PERFECT offensive complement for Luka at center. Not good, perfect.

I was just gathering my thoughts to basically say the very same thing. Looking at centers, the perfect partner for Luka would be:
- offense: can hit a three, PnR, pass and abuse smaller defenders when switched on him
- defense: can switch, have a bit bigger body to fight some of the bigger ones who have the team to get far in the playoffs (Jokic, Embiid)
- other: not injury prone, high BB IQ, good teammate

I don't think there is any center in the league that would fit the description of the ideal center next to Luka. A.Davis might be closest, but he is always injured. Turner could be considered, but who knows how much his stats this season are a consequence of his expiring contract. Perhaps LeBron would be the ideal solution at this stage of his career. 

I think Wood ticks plenty of boxes above as long as "good teammate" is not an issue.
