I preach watching games coupled with statistics “he told people pick up chriss” = and? I said pick him up and see if the minutes stick because every time he gets above 20 plus this year he’s putting up great lines = still true He hyped Nunn = for good reason, he was a top 50 to 80 play for nearly 2 months, he was even amazing a week and a half ago before dragic came back, he’s a drop candidate when dragic is healthy. I’ve also done the following: told people to pick up Barton told people to pick up McRae told people to drop Derrick white two weeks into the season while many were hanging on for dear life told people not to sell jokic in November, nor jrue holiday told people not to drop PJ Washington told people to pick up Melton told people not to drop or trade Jaren Jackson in early November told people to stream divincenzo told people thybulle isn’t going to do **** before the season started told people poeltl is not a long term pick up told people Theis is not a long term pick up told people looney sucks told people Simons is not going to amount to much this season but has me intrigued told people not to draft Mitch Robinson told people not to draft Aaron Gordon told people TJ Warren, lamb, and oubre are fantastic values based on their draft position. I’ve also made bad calls: I told people not to draft luka 2nd round because of the potential variance, I said he’s just as likely to be a top 10 guy as he is top 50 due to percentages. I don’t have an issue being wrong, I’m here to help people and provide insight. The difference is I’m willing to support predictions and opinions with observation and stats and scouting reports and highlights and go out on a limb because it also helps myself make informed decisions as well as others (hopefully). Bro you took this guy to school and he hasn't responded since 😂 Anyway, thanks for your detailed analysis/input bro. I appreciate the insight and I'm sure the next guy does as well 👌 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thread has been very interesting and pretty insightful. You have arguments for both sides presented pretty damn well lol...There is no easy answer for Wood, just gotta take bit and pieces of info from both sides and make your own call here. IMO he’s worth owning in a 12 teamer at the very least. You have got to have crappier guy on roster then this...that said, I don’t think he’s going be anybody fantasy savior. If opportunity presents itself and he can return top 100 value, I’ll be happy. Doesn’t sound that unreasonable? Edited January 4, 2020 by IDatDude 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ray Barboni 455 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I’ve got Wood. Monitoring Sekou for now, as it’s harder to find quality PF/C off the wire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fantasy doesn’t discriminate, stats are stats and outlooks change depending on situations. Which teams passed on Kawhi, Curry and Thompson? If you are taking about draft, it is a fair point only to certain extent. Every team has hit or miss jackpot in the draft. Holmes sent Dedmon to the bench, Whiteside forced his way into starting 5. Wood could not pass 9 min mark an excellent Sixers and Hornets teams Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My Dinner With Andre 5,813 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I’m curious if there are any historical comps with Wood’s shot selection. All the guy shoots is putbacks to 10 fters and threes. I guess that’s how he can shoot 60% from the field and still contribute a three a game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darkyume 941 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I have Wood because I'm a sucker for per-36 monsters, but also tempering expectations. I just don't really see a huge incentive for the Pistons to develop Wood and have him blow up, unless they're confident they can resign him and be more than a role player for next season. Imagine that they unleash Wood, and the Pistons GM and Casey have this conversation at the end of the season: GM: How do you think Thon developed over the season? Can he be a good role player? Is he at least worth the qualifying offer for next season? Casey: I dunno, I sat his a** in favor of Wood and never gave him consistent minutes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ GM: Okay, how about Wood? His contract expired and he's now an unrestricted free agent. Should we try to get him to come back? Casey: He performed really well when I gave him a bunch of minutes! Other teams would be interested in him, so he might get really expensive though. Let's hope we can keep him. Derp. GM: 😡 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Supersonics 177 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 No usage whatsoever when Derrick Rose is out there. Man shoots every single possession. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Man shoots every single possession. yeah I pointed this out on the previous page (lost in the heap of crap) and said wood will be better served in the starting unit and needs to play alongside Brown, because Rose plays for his points. Rose plays an extremely selfish brand of basketball. He’s effective at scoring still off the bench but cares very little for getting the second unit going as a whole. He doesn’t run an offense. I see guys set up outside for him in 5 out spacing to give him room to isolate and it’s like wiggins - he’ll either pull up for a contested shot or drive into multiple defenders and try something acrobatic. These games are a write off for me, with the Drummond Rumours heating up, Rose is likely going to get shipped out as well to a contender. So it’s a matter of day to day or week to week now, as opposed to waiting until March. They will expedite the tanking process, especially with Griffin being a shutdown candidate. It definitely sucks seeing him rot away on the bench with the starting spot up for grabs in the mean time. Edited January 5, 2020 by Lifschitz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gile Pile 1,206 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 So why he isn't playing tonight? Is rookie Doumbouya the reason? Or maybe because he is a journeyman on his 5th team with expiring contract? 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doomz 416 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) he just got subbed for Doumbouya again (and scolded by Casey). To be fair though, every time he's stepped on the court tonight Warriors have gone on a 10-0 run lol Edited January 5, 2020 by doomz 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
