A low value trade (ala Barnes), just doesn't work out for the better in the long run. I'd rather use Wood and let him walk.
Although I guess it depends on how low his value is. If the return is Justin Jackson, then we gotta keep him. If we're getting an Okoro or Hart, then sell as fast as you can.
You summed it up well. I was of course only a day or two ago on the "Mavs are nuts not to give Wood the farm" train, but what we saw last night, as well as reflecting on how the Kyrie trade and Green and Hardy's emergence affects the future, I would like to see him play with this team this year a la Brunson, but if anything of value comes back, they have to take advantage of that.
