Woods seems like a guy who is about to get overpaid based on brief inflated stats on a trash team with no other options.

Wood has every single tool you want in a big, he could become ridiculously valuqble for us under nurse


If Woods was actually good, why did DET sign 83 centers? Woods is fools gold.

is this guy credible


Works for Bleacher Report. So 50/50


I like him quite a bit as a backup option... a true low risk, high reward type signing. I guess we will know soon if there is any truth to this.


Can you give a brief rundown of his game?

His per minute numbers are awesome, but the fact that Detroit is signing every big in the league right now but won't give this guy a contract, and their fans don't seem to mind, makes me really weary of the guy.


Go over to the pistons reddit, they are all depressed at him leaving as he doesn't want to resign. And i don't look at numbers, i watch scouting vids and the dude literally has all the tools of a modern big in the nba. Hed fit as outlr center or if siakam needs a rest our pf.

He can shoot, dribble for a big, his pnr game is good, he contests shots. Im also sure under nurse he could be a more effective defender than ibaka

I agree. I'm lukewarm on Wood.

He can go Yogi Stewart on us the moment he signs that contract. Need bigger sample size...

Guys, detroit fans convinced wood did not want to stay which is why they are signing centers. He and kennard were literally their 2 only bright spots this season asidr from some d rose play

I guess we blew our once in a generation super team potential when Kawhi walked out on us. Hopefully it doesn't take another 25 years to get that opportunity again. It looks like 2021 Giannis or bust :-?

Well, Detroit does always make terrible decisions - can't argue that.

Obviously not the same GM..but remember all of the terrible signings the Pistons have made over the years?
Like that summer they spent ALL their cap space on Ben Gordon and Charlie V?
Or when signed Brandon Jennings?
Josh Smith?
