THE CRUCIFIX: Cato: Wood isn't thrilled w/ his role...Will depart in the summer
(10-23-2022, 02:01 AM)F Gump Wrote: BTW, if I'm the Mavs, I'm shooting at selling Wood on getting the 6th Man award this season. That focuses him on a goal that works with their rotation, rather than a different one (starting) that causes issues. And it should be very possible for him, in his role.

Is Wood being somewhat slotted into the role of the 3rd offense creator, that helps open up the possibilities for the Luka-SD duo (just like SD did for Luka-JB last season? Is that possible? Not that his game is anything like JB's, but it seems Wood's ability to get a good shot with great regularity is already hinting at the potential for a similar 3-way dynamic as we saw at the end of last season.

Yes, I see Wood taking over Brunson role as one of three creators (in a totally different way as you say).  If he continues to hold his own as a single big it makes roster construction very straight forward.  We play two out of three creators (Luka/Din/Wood) and 2 out of 3 3&D guys (DFS/Bullock/Maxi).  The fifth roster spot is up for grabs with a hodgepodge of folks (THJ/McGee/Green).  Its that roster spot we need to upgrade next offseason.
