They never really fit and it was obvious the coaching staff, front office and Mark were not fans. There is an opportunity cost involved though. Mavs wasted a decent asset to gamble on Wood. Detroit got Bogdonvich for a first. Boston got Brogdon for a first. And Dallas lost an opportunity to draft a young asset, even if you believe Hardy would have been the pick regardless. With a team already low on assets they really need to take advantage of every one they have. Looking back, they didn't with Wood.
Yep, they could have had Wendell Moore Jr. instead. And Boban, Sterling, Marquese, and Trey.
