Based on what? Brunson has played on competitive teams. Wood has never done the same. Brunson is putting up comparable numbers in a more difficult situation. And so far I haven´t seen any evidence that Wood is a better defender.
Fit might be a valid argument. Lack of catch and shoot ability next to Luka is a big no no. But on the other hand. Anyone that watches the Mavs can see that they are missing a ballhandler. Nurse is taking advantage of it right now. Pressing full court to force THJ or DFS into the creator role.
