    So judging from preseason so far the new Clutchfans whipping boys are House and Wood, with a small side of hate for Daniel Theis?

    Wood honestly doesn't have any lateral moves. It's just down hill stuff.

    I mean that’s how he’s getting paid. If he was your third or fourth option that’d be pretty solid.

    EG’s still #1 for me, but Wood will quickly take his spot once he’s finally gone if he keeps up the BS

    House to me is just comedy relief

    I'm not sure you are understanding the point of the argument. No one is arguing that muscles don't shrink and lose area as they age - the muscles that make someone strong are ALSO responsible for their quickness, speed, jumping height, etc. The question is whether normal muscle aging impacts one skill more quickly than another. I don't know the science behind it, but anecdotally it is very obvious that most people lose speed, athleticism, and quickness before strength - you see it in the pros, you see it when you play ball recreationally....and when people say strength in basketball terms, they aren't referring to how much they can bench, we are talking about when two bodies collide, which prevails and as guards go, Lowry IS one of the stronger guards in the league.

    We need to trade Wood while he has some value.

    Or we could not overreact to one missed dunk in a preseason game. Just saying.

    Finally took House out. But he's our leading rebounder. Oh noes. And his replacement Nwaba daba doo comes in and throws it out of bounds. Nice.
