TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[ItsGoTime]

I'm a big fan of Collins, but I'm not convinced Wood can’t give us more than him.

I saw Wood as someone who has problems to buy in on a good team.
Maybe Houston really cured that.

The main problem I have, is Bogi is playing like Luka and will occupie Lukas space without spacing for him or being able to backup him.

Collins is not a spacer, Bogi needs the ball to do something good. They are not "shooters".

I’m for sure hoping for the best from Wood, just not so sure I can trust it all with him. I think Wood’s best is not as good as Collins best. I don’t however want to discount what you and mvossman are saying though cause you could be right.


I’m not sure why you think Bogi, after playing with Fox and Young his whole career wouldn’t play well off ball to Luka while also giving Luka the needed oncourt rest. Bogi, JB and Dinwiddie all have the same usage rate, so to suggest it won’t work is to suggest JB and SD with Luka didn’t work. As long as the usage comes in the flow of an offense and not you go, I go hero ball I think it’s more than fine. That’s on Kidd and the coaching staff to figure that out more than the players in my mind.

I think you either overestimate THJ’s gravity or you underestimate Collins and Bogi’s.
