There is less reason to have Maxi or Wood out there with McGee defensively, and the McGee/Wood combo is not a great fit offensively. I see our frontcourt being McGee/Dorian roughly 15-20 minutes a game. I think Wood and Maxi are a great paring in the front court. They both can play a switching defense and week side block, Maxi can take on the defensive anchor role while Wood can help make up for Maxi limited rebounding. On offense Maxi wont be clogging the paint allowing Wood to display his full arsenal. I'm not saying Wood can't play the Powell role defensively for 5 or 10 minutes a game, but I think every minute he plays with Maxi will be better defensively.Pretty good assessment.
MLE money can't always get us Bullock. It also got us Powell. It also got us WCS, Brown and Burke a couple years ago. I don't think you can count on getting a Bullock every year with the MLE. I also think Maxi provides particular fit value on this team. Its not like we are all that off anyways. You have him at 7, I have him at his current 9, others have him at 11. That is probably the range of what he will get.
