    Usman already better rebounder, ball handler, rim protector, switch defender, disruptor, passer, finisher and believe it or not ...

    ... 3ball shooter, than Theis.

    Nope.

    Theis and House.

    Those are the minutes Garuba needs to take when healthy again.

    I agree. The fact that House is getting play is almost criminal.

    Is Wood our franchise player to build around? If not then what are we doing? Building around the 3rd or maybe 2nd best player on a playoff team while lowering the value of our war chest to acquire an actual franchise player?

    The best free agents rarely hit the market anymore if you haven’t noticed.

    Weeks ago, I was 100% on trading Cwood. I'm still open to it but I would also suggest that we approach him about an extension. 4 years 90 mil maybe?

    Well that would be dumb. Because if the best we do is get a player who plays exactly like Wood we're going to be a fringe playoff team at best. The hope is to get a top 10 player. Is Wood even a top 50 player?

    It’s a catch 22… with competing with Wood you limit your ability to make trades because you lower your the value of your draft picks while taking one of your best player assets of the table.

    Wood is the type of player you hope to get once you already have your Harden because Wood is very good.

    But rebuilding around Wood…..?

    Or if you are guy is Dirk Nowitzki, you would not need Wood.

    Thats a very team friendly extension, we can offer it but I’m sure he’d get more elsewhere.

    Since switching the lineup against the Bulls, Wood has averaged 23 points with 14 boards a game.

    And we are now competitive with the other bottom teams, possibly above Magic, OKC, Detroit, and Zion-less Pels.

    Hooray?
