I thought Wood was supposedly improving defensively but if a 6'4" G-League caliber guard is scoring at the rim on him, that can't be a good sign for improving our interior defense.
IDK...I'm just not convinced our frontcourt situation has been fully addressed.
Still think Wood makes Powell completely expendable.
Wouldn't mind making some deal surrounding Powell/Green for Clarkson/Azubuike.

McGee saw 15 a night in Phx a year ago, I expect him to average the same. That leaves nearly 80 minutes at the 4/5 spots for Wood and Kleber to split up. Even though Wood doesn't start.....he will get plenty of court time.
