    He’s so skilled, all the more reason why his free throw shooting is completely unacceptable. There’s ZERO reason why he doesn’t shoot better and more consistently from the line.

    Rob Williams is a monster who had great games against us last season, Horford is also still a very serviceable defender, I don't see any cakewalk for Wood tonight.

    Uh... Davis, Embiid, Porzingis, JJackson, and soon enough Mobley.

    Davis and Jackson, I'll give you that. Embiid can be but I think he's slow, Porzingis is serviceable but too inconsistent. I like what I see in Mobley.

    I'll give you Embiid and AD (even though his 3ball is meh).

    But Porzingas and JJ did not average 20/10 AND 37% from 3P last season.

    And Mobley is good but not THAT good yet.

    I was responding to the tweet

    A big that can do
    All the guys I listed can definitely do that. Not trying to discredit Wood or anything, just saying it's not only Wood/Towns who can do the quoted above.

    Porzingis also averaged 20/9 with a .37 3PT % last season

    Collins is another one, and there are probably more I'm forgetting, bigs are becoming more diverse every year

    So........
    What I said in my original post about him not being the focal point and would he get disgruntled..... should we consider moving him while most view him for his empty stats.


    Hmmmph??. Guess we shall see. He still plays no def. ‍♂️

    I can’t wait until he’s gone. I hate his mentality. You would think a nba journeyman would have a underdog mentality. This dude thinks he’s a star. Smh

    I would be fine with trading him for the right return.

    I'd trade him for Evan Mobley. Come on Cavs! You know you want a 20/10 player!

    Do it Cavs!

    Woods statline vs. the Warriors... 24 minutes, 1rb, 1ast, 3to, 4pf, 4pts, +/- (-18). Abysmal.

    I'd trade him for a legit PG around the same age.

    Johnathan Kuminga reunited with Jalen Green

    Trade Christian Wood and Eric Gordon to make it happen
