I don't think Maxi is the post defender we need from that starting spot either.

Depends on the position he needs to defend. Against traditional centers he lacks length and strength. Against quicker PFs he is a great option. He had the best games of his career against Zion and Siakam. He blocked Zion 5x times in the same game last season.
Problem with Maxi is that he cannot handle a starting role for 80+ games / 30+ minutes. He is perfect as a 20-25 minutes guy of the bench that can occasionally finish the game with the starters.
