    He's probably in my starting 5 for worst rockets ever

    I do not think he is totally washed to this point from that skill standpoint you spoke of but he is surely not the Detroit, Houston or the Mavs Christian Wood. He is worse.

    I dunno... I have Royce White, Derek Fisher, Zan Tabak, Vassilis Spanoulis, and Zhou Qi ahead of him.

    I would put most of these players right up there with them as well

    KPJ (waste of talent!)
    Thabeet
    Chandler (go hang out in S. Oklahoma) prolly shouldn't be on this list, but he is in my eyes
    Thomas Robinson
    Oladipo
    Marcus Morris (cause he's not Kawhi)
    Danuel "can't keep it in my pants" House (or whatever his rap name is now)
    Lamb
    Jordan Hill
    Dalembert
    Jonny Flynn

    Christian Wood Very Selfish, Worst Teammate by Far.

    Unforgivable giving Alperen Sengun only 5 minutes his Rookie Year by Stephen Silas as a Backup Center. Begone Christian Wood.

    I have no idea why Zhou Qi wasn't given a opportunity. Wemby type.

    I am honestly surprised at how bad CWood turned out.

    You got a dude who was an offensive dynamo, had good length and was relatively athletic, can hit 3s, shoot fts and go strong to the hoop. Unfortunately he was like Cam Whitmore in the dark timeline. Never got a coach like Udoka who got on him for playing selfishly and being a joke on defense. Not sure if another team signs him next year maybe the Sixers or Suns.

    Looks like no one owes you an apology. We were familiar with your game.

    Wood is not the worst Rocket ever, but he may be my least favorite. All that talent, and plays like an *******. He made me angry with his selfishness and laziness. Terrible teammate too. All about himself, and he didn’t seem to have a clue what he was doing wrong.

    In terms of physical ability and skill level, this guy is near the mt rushmore of underachievers. He should be a perennial all star, instead of a fringe player that gets passed around like a blunt because everybody "hopes" they can make him not suck

    So many guys busting their asses just to get a taste and he made 50 million with C- level effort and F level attitude.
