TRADE: Christian Wood (1yr/$14.3M) to DAL | #26+SB+Boban+Chriss+TB to HOU

[mvossman]

I think Wood is good enough offensively that were going to want him in closing lineups regardless of matchup (instead of Bullock against certain teams). However difficult it may be, it would be a home run to still figure out a way to bring a legit starting 5 like Turner or Capela. Wood is best suited as 4 imo but has the ability to play 5 in our system.

I think we are going to have to get used to the concept of undersized 5s.  That seems to be where both the league and the Mavs are headed.  It would make sense to get a bruiser at the vet min that we can throw out there when handy, but my guess is Wood is penciled in at the 5.
