Giving Wilcox the same minutes he will output better stats than Gooden and stay within his position, maybe he can't make FT but again he sticks with his position.
1. No, Chris Wilcox can NOT make the J's Gooden makes. Wilcox simply has no jumper. It's not an issue of taking it at all.

2. Look at the FG % numbers. For a guy who plays on the perimeter, and doesnt have a good J, he shoots DAMN good. 49% from the field is awesome, especially when you say he strays on the perimeter too much.

3. Again, it is NOT an issue of playing time. Thats such a lame cop out and there is absolutely NOTHING to support that. When Wilcox started for the Clips, he averaged 6 rebounds in 30 minutes. Clearly, his lack of rebounding is NOT because of a lack of PT. HE's simply just not good at it. He can't play defense either.

Ill give Wilcox the fact that he's a better offensive player, but not by much. Gooden is on a completely different world than WIlcox as a rebounder though. It's not even a comparison. Neither play defense.

WIlcox would be lucky to end up being as successful as Gooden is when he moves on elsehwere. Gooden is a proven, very good NBA player. All Wilcox is is physical talent with upside, with no desire to do anything but score.

Ad nauseum for a trade that's not gona happen...

Why don't we shift to another scenario that's not gona happen and talk about trading Jaric, Ross, and Wilcox for TD?

Re: Jaric to Cavs for Gooden?

It is a relative subject.

People continue to make ridiculous claims overrating one of our own in Chris Wilcox.

He's not as good now as people like to believe. He's got a ton of potential, but that doesnt mean much to what he is on the floor right now. And thats what we are talking about at this point.

Re: Jaric to Cavs for Gooden?

Gooden being traded is also not 100% out of the question. But with us signing rebraca, and possibly moore, i dont see the clippers getting another front court guy unless they do not sign moore. Even with trading wilcox, thats too much money of the salary cap devoted to the front court.
