GAME 6: ORL (1-6) @ DAL (3-3) | 114-105 win

[Kammrath]

But, is that really the question.  There are two versions of Wood thus far.  Solo-big Wood and Wood with Maxi.  Wood with Maxi seems to work.  D-Rating is 102 in 110 minutes.  I don’t have a good way to isolate the other Wood minutes, but that is really the question that needs to be answered.  My eye-test says they aren’t good.  Kidd’s actions and comments seem to indicate we won’t be seeing much of it no matter what, but if Wood solo-big is ever to evolve into something workable we need to see it in the brief glimpses those lineups are getting.

Here they are isolated:



1) They are worse defensively, but not as bad as the DFS minutes this year. Maybe Kidd should bench DFS and play Wood? (tongue in cheek)

2) They are still REALLY successful. +7.4 is GREAT. 

3) They are WAY better than Maxi-as-only-big minutes, which for the Luka/SD/DFS/RB/Maxi lineup are 132.6 DRtg (Net -32.6).
