[DanSchwartzgan]

And, as even @"DanSchwartzgan" admitted the other day, since he has gotten the chance to play solo big, he basically has been defending. 
 

Wood is either good enough to play as a solo big on a winning team or he is not a player you want on your team. There is no "in-between" where you can magically hide him by playing him out of position. He's a big in a one-big league. Does he belong in that league? I honestly don't know yet, but I feel pretty strongly that the clock on us finding out started about a week ago, not at the beginning of the season.
 

And, in the two games since I said it, the D hasn't been the least bit special.  That is why the statement was accompanied with the question "will this last or was it due to a specific type of opponent?".

I think the in-between for Wood is he's a bench big (center).  Whether he can play with a someone like Dorian or Luka or whether he needs someone like Maxi on the floor may depend on the opponent more than it depends on Wood.
