Miami Heat Rumors: Fear Of Unknown Says Stay Away From Christian Wood
Miami Heat Rumors: Fear Of Unknown Says Stay Away From Christian Wood
Here is an excerpt from the report. It is framed in an interesting way.
After Iko discusses Eric Gordon and the lack of momentum on actually moving him, the reporting continues, before getting to Wood. Here is what was said on Wood’s situation and specifically, by name, the Miami Heat.
"The same can be said of starting center Christian Wood. The 26-year-old has been subject to interest around the league, and sources say Miami has been one of the more persistent teams in engaging with Houston on the versatile big man. But barring a blow-me-away offer, Wood should remain in Houston past the deadline, sources tell The Athletic."
Interesting. It is very interesting, indeed.
When it comes to Christian Wood and Miami Heat, the only question is why? When you look at what Wood has done across his career, he’s been pretty good for bad teams.
Yes, he’s put up numbers but that hasn’t impacted winning at the highest level— or the lowest, for that matter. You also look at it from a roster composition standpoint.
If you look at what the Miami Heat have, yes there is a fit there, as he’s a big man with inside tools that can also stretch the floor. However, they have other bigs, already, that can do that very thing, if need be, but ones that don’t cost them nearly as much as Wood does.
There are more layers to peel back though.
