However, if you really wanna go with a "big" lineup with Wood at the 4, I'd rather see Maxi instead of McGee. With Maxi camping out on the 3 point line, I feel like Wood would absolutely feast on lob passes from Luka. McGee gives you almost nothing on offense outside of lobs and easy dunks. He's basically Powell on offense but at least can still protect the rim and rebound. I feel like he'll clog the paint and hinder Wood's effectiveness on the pick and roll, since Luka will have to split between the two of them.

McGee is a great bench player. He should not be starting on a contender in this league. I watched him last year with the Suns...his worst games came when he started for Ayton. He'd suck and then guys like Biyombo would come in and look better than him at times. But he would crush off the bench.
