TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[DallasMaverick]

Hard to know.  I’m not hearing a ton of teams lining up for Jae.  It would help to know what LAC was thinking about in a Wood deal.  Morris?  Covington?  Do we see those guys much differently than Crowder?

Seems like Wood and Crowder are in a similar situation.  Both are on expiring contracts, and want to get a big payday with their next deal.  

If Dallas makes this deal, it seems like:

1. They believe Crowder's value is higher than Wood's over the next few months of their championship run, after which he walks, or
2. They believe it will be easier to convince Crowder of his market value than it is to convince Wood of his.
