I don't think this is fair to CWood, his strengths and weaknesses were already well-defined prior to Dallas acquiring him. CWood has fully delivered on expectations this season, he's come off the bench for the majority of this season without a hiccup and is performing above his career averages in a number of categories. Yes, Dallas is among the bottom of the league in rebounding, defense, and assists, and it makes complete sense for Dallas to move Wood for a better fit to shore up some of their weaknesses, but to blame that on Wood himself is wrong, he's been a pro this year.
How many years, nobody knows for now. It's probably still only for two. Even if Wood doesn't accept it, it's a good sign Cuban is finally ready to spend on this team. And he once said he will pay luxury tax only for a team that he believes can win a championship.
Well now that the Mavs have 2 ball-dominant players in their backcourt, I’m sure Christian Wood be fine with fewer touches and will embrace doing all the dirty work he excels at: setting solid picks, strong interior defense, passing, and hustling for loose balls. Should be a perfect fit.
How come stephen silas hasnt been able to develop woods pick setting ability while here...I though he is good at development?
Pretty sure it's his attitude. He thinks he is a franchise level player and he believes he already worked himself to be a respected player. That's not the case so he probably butts heads with everyone.
I agree, if certain Mavs were to get (mentally) healthy in time for the playoffs, they could be hard to beat. Seems unlikely, however.
