If Wood balls out and Luka is in shape, they will be a damn good duo, and Brunson tossing in 18-20 points a night would be great too even though he’s too small to ever be a plus defender.
Wood is a good piece and I like the trade but we need more key pieces. Not just some veterans to round up the cast. A true 2 doesn’t get traded for the #26 pick and journeymen. The reason you don’t want to get carried away and overrate folks is that you tend to make bad decisions when you start doing that.
