    It's not just the fuse, the injury histories.

    If you think getting RID OF COVINGTON for Wood and heavily protected picks(which is really the only real move) that he's made this off season actually moves the needle than you are a moron. The rest are minimum signings and unproven talent in the NBA. You bad posters really dont get it.

    It's a 1 year deal, non guaranteed likely.

    If he gets injured, it's a non issue.

    It's a good deal for the team but DeMarcus probably can't say he is still at the peak of his career.

    What offense? Do you think we’re going to run same offense as MDA?

    With Harden, Russ, Wood and Boogie that is 4 players who can show and go.

    Still need an ace from corner 3.

    And defense is still important.

    I bet he can still rebound. Great passer. Let him clog the lane on defense.

    Silas says he wasnt going to make large changes to the offense. Why would you think otherwise, we were a top offense(not with Westbrook). He said he would make necessary tweaks.

    I didn’t see that anywhere. I assumed he was going to do a bit more motion like in Dallas

    Hopefully he stays healthy he’s an offensive machine when he is.

    Either way we definitely aren’t running the same offense. The personnel can’t handle it

    He said that in his press conference. We arent going to have huge changes cause we dont need to.

    Just need to bring back Ryno or D-Mo for depth at the 5, and we're all set!

    I doubt he runs a iso heavy offense. Pick and roll should be features heavily

    For the people concerned with defense do you think before Boogie Houston had a chance at a good defense? We threw that out the window with the Roco trade. Wood is nothing more than an average defender in the paint as well. Boogie isn’t going to hurt what is ultimately going to be mediocre defense.

    This offseason has sucked but this is a really good move. IF he’s healthy which is a big if and he can regain 80% of what he was it will be great.

    It's good to see him again but he can't be running too fast.

    The injury came when he stole the ball and went coast to coast and from jumping......normal situations.

    Honestly I’m not worried about defense anymore. Any chance Houston had a good defense again went out the window when they dumped Roco for Wood. Boogie won’t make what’s going to be a pretty awful defense any more worse.
