Steal Christian Wood out from under the Sixers

[EJPLAYA]

This kid looks like the real deal. If you want to sign a kid with upside on the reasonable contract level he is worth the risk. He has a great motor. Good length and ability. He has looked like the best player on the Sixers summer league team including Simmons IMO. Sweep in there and offer the kid a contract and we could have a solid bench energy guy for years to come.

ye hes intriguing...thought he was drafted from last year right?

[nickagneta]

We have too many players for roster spots already. I wouldn't read too much into Wood's performance in Summer League. I lot of non-NBA players have played lights out in the Summer League while lots of top drafts picks have performed poorly. It happens.

Yes,  but he was signed and later released, so he's a free agent for anyone to be had.

You mean like James Young in his last summer league game?

LOL ahhahah XD they should decide what to do with him XDDDD i see...probably wouldnt have too much of a role with us...

[PhoSita]

Wood wouldn't make this roster.

He barely played for the Sixers last year.

[KG Living Legend]

 He's coming out of the Wood works haha.

Please. Young hit a few open threes but can't do anything else on offense or defense. Wood made plays all over the floor in addition to his offense. The guy can play.

[chambers]

He's an absolutely horrid defender, but he's still Young. I'd rather have Wood than James Young.
