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

[dirkfansince1998]

I just don't think CP3 can play off the ball and we've seen the experiment of playing Luka off the ball.  IMO, Green needs to start at SG and we need a real SF who can rebound and defend.

I hope you're wrong about Wood.  As a starter in 17 games he was 20.4pts, 9.4rbs, 2.3blks in 33.1mins.  That puts him about 7th or 8th in the NBA offensively at C (ahead of KAT and Bam).  How the hell can Kidd not scheme around his defensive problems for this production???  If he can't, he shouldn't be coach.  

Like I said before the Irving trade, you build around your best players (at the time Luka/Wood/Din).  If Irving walks, we can't afford to lose Wood also.

Might have something to do with the list of best players you just posted. Not a single plus defender. I would adjust your statement and say that you build around your best player. In a best case scenario around your two best players. Rest of the team has to fit next to them. If you have two guards that cannot defend you have to make sure that the rest of the team is close to all-defense level.
