THE CRUCIFIX: Cato: Wood isn't thrilled w/ his role...Will depart in the summer

[ballsrchr]

I think he’s incredibly talented. 

He just looks like he’s winging it out there though. Not sure how to describe it. I can see why NBA coaches, who are generally egomaniacs anyway, can dislike him. Nothing with him looks structured.

I’d start him with Luka and surround them with 3 defenders.

I have been watching Wood and will agree with you except that he does seem lost on the court sometimes.  I observed other players directing him to where he should be.  Sometimes he was late.  However...he is a rare talent that deserves some consideration and positive development.

Kyrie Irving seems to have only 7 brain cells...one cell goes to breathing and the other six go to basketball.  I don't think this is the case with Wood: I hope this is not the case with Wood.  Wood seems like a good guy, possibly with a frustrating learning difficulty, but not lacking in intelligence.  At least more intelligence than KI.

I'm also not a fan of Wood's "Kidd" glove treatment...

But what do I know?
